still trying to figure out the 2 in the second pic. is that aussie 250 GP - about 93 or so ??

but the first one is glen richards, pretty sure he was dual aus 125 champ ?, the next scotty russel 93 WSBK champ and the last is damon buckmaster, circa 1995.

Good work
It's the 250 proddies from 94 in the first pic and yep its Craig Connel.
Glen Richards in the bottom pic. The chick is Anne Letske or something.??
The Yamaha rider is Bucky so that leaves the guy in the first pic on No. 24...
He did 2 years on a Kawi in the FX superbikes and supersports.......

It's a Honda RS250 GP bike Phil!! I picked Craig, not by the bike, not by the leathers, but by the style :lol: The funny thing is, I know the style of the guy on the RS250, and I know who it is, but I am Having memory blanks. Bit like I had with Leslie!!! But Let's rattle a few names off and see if it doesn't trigger the memory.

It's not Hardcastle as he didn't do supers I don't think!

So, Can't be Marcus Paynton (his elbow isn't on the ground :lol: )
mmmmm ??????? Willis didn't start till later,??????? mmmmmmm????? Still stumped, go on put me out of my misery Dave!!!! :D
