Hi
This is me at Cadwell in '82, on my Suzuki TS250 engined racer.
The  lack of screen & scuffs all round are due to an off at Snetterton previous weekend!
Cheap club racing in the Single Cylinder 250 class, great fun.
I used this bike for a few years then took a couple of years off, started again on a Yamaha YZ250 based bike & stopped in '90 for children, mortgage etc.

Gold Star in a Manx.
Snetterton.
Many many years ago.
A very, very short career.
Found I simply did not enjoy it so packed it up.

I preferred working on them and pushing them to start.
I was with the "other" team. Prominent pushing at about 2 minutes in.

Better 5 minutes late in this world than years early in the next.

I unearthed some photos of my Yamaha YZ250 based racer from 1989, I think.
