    Dont forget me!! David Vaughan rode on the track 1974 to 1977 left and joined Redmon cc as my parents split up. I went to live with my dad in Sutton.Nick Faint was a year below me at school and at times we rode together to events.I remember the YHA holidays in Wales.I also remember John taking Nick and I and one other on a camping/training holiday.I was good on the hills/mountains and this use to piss them off which ended up with a fisty cups back at camp! I got into road racing and rode the Kent League. I got a medal for BAR from paddington one year.Remember those time trials and sprinting at the end as if on the track.My training at the time was cycling up Highgate hill every morning to do a paper round ( got use to the pain!!).Enjoying this thread.Is John still a live he was a fantastic coach to us all.
