Which Picture?

If it's the last one, his name is Max Singh. He came to Ripon from Osnatraz in about '88 IIRC which would tie in with posting times from your course.

Yes indeed, it is Jock Laverty. It's also him in the second picture. We did our instructors course together. We had a great laugh on that course, some of the speeds, bends and off road stuff we did was quite amazing at the time, given the general thoughts about MTs.

Give him my regards, ask him to drop me a line I have some other photos of him he can have.

Remind him of my spectactular crash at the top of the near vertical climb, he must remember it! Of and the women of Beverley!

We were lucky, we stayed at Driffield, commuting for the course. Beverley was just down the road, remind him I was the Royal Engineer with the Goldwing.

Remind him of the T Shirts we never got done
