shortoi 0 Posted April 28, 2004 As for English boys no rider rode as low as Mike Broadbanks (Stoke, I think?) *gasps* Bite your tongue, philherne!!! Broady was a Swindon legend, always has been always will be! *gasps again* And NOBODY has mentioned the legendary Barry Briggs!! As for me, the one rider that I will NEVER forget has to be Malc Holloway! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tigerblade 221 Posted April 29, 2004 One or two of these have ridden for Sheffield, ie. Eric Broadbelt (no I've never heard that name anywhere else either Beowulf), Randy Green, and Rene Aas. My mum and I were at Hull one night when he finished last and the announcer said "and Rene Aas brings up the rear" without realising what he was saying. Can't believe nobody has mentioned the ex Weymouth and Scunthorpe New Zealander Mark de Kok His brother Greg rode in our juniors/second halves in the early 80's and I thought he was the greatest thing since sliced bread at the time.. He returned to NZ never to be seen again (That's the problem with Anzacs, they all go home eventually ) Can't remember who posted it now, but yes, I do remember old Deccy Eccy!!
