My recollection is that there were two riders that caught Stewart Dickson’s attention at the same time, Jayden O’Malley and Mason Campton. Of the two, Jayden was performing better in Australia but Stewart needed someone to balance an O’Malley and who better than a Mason? The out-turn is best forgotten!

Mason was a little patchy to start but improved and sadly more so when he moved to The Comets. Think Mason finished with a respectable 5+ average. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suppose we could blame John Wilson's spare bike for that as we all know what Egon went onto on his own machinery Neil asked him if he had brought handlebars with him, he replied he had many bikes with different bars so it wasn't a problem. His excuse for his poor return?..........That's right the handlebars didn't suit him. Still, he was a brilliant rider. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
