minted 0 Posted August 19, 2003 Does anyone remember Troy Butler? I'm starting to think he was a figment of my imagination! I'm sure he won a national league riders championship years ago. Any ideas where he is now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Addy 1 Posted August 19, 2003 Didn't he once ride for Oxford, and now lives in East Anglia? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

minted 0 Posted August 19, 2003 Woman’s prerogative.........indecision is my middle name! I’m struggling with my allegiances since I’ve moved south. I mean, I honestly can’t wear an Eastbourne jersey! Aussie on a technicality, but British in the long run. Someone make my mind up for me! Confused........you will be! :roll: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Team Man 32 Posted August 19, 2003 Does anyone remember Troy Butler? I'm starting to think he was a figment of my imagination! I'm sure he won a national league riders championship years ago.Any ideas where he is now? Troy Butler rode for Milton Keynes, he won the NLRC in 1988 at coventry, last time I met up with Troy he had been spannering for other riders, I don't know where he is now, a cracking young rider, he was 20 when he won the NLRC....

fatface 2,557 Posted August 20, 2003 I think it was Troy who had a bizarre World Championship one year (1989?) where he was eliminated about three times on his way to the final, but sneaked through the backdoor each time as a reserve. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greybear 7 Posted August 21, 2003 I think it was Troy who had a bizarre World Championship one year (1989?) where he was eliminated about three times on his way to the final, but sneaked through the backdoor each time as a reserve. Absolutely spot on Falcace it was 1989 when the final was held in the Olympic Stadium at Munich. He rode as a guest for us once (Bradford) at Reading & it was the only away match we won in the league that season (think that 1989 as well) & he scored 14 points Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bryn 413 Posted August 22, 2003 There is a photo of Troy on Mike Patricks web site in his favourite pics Troy is (and has been for some years) living back in his native Australia and (as you would expect of him) living life to the full.
