All I got was the box of pictures. Not sure who many of the riders would be or what bikes they are riding. Some ore obvious but I am not sure about that particular one.

I think that is a rather young looking Frishchie, you're right!

Love the original (horrible!) SPD shoes!

[Old Ned]

The first UCI 'official' world championships with Ned (my alter ego - 'cos I rode a Stumpjumper and had a ginger moustache ) getting Gold, Frishy Silver and our own Tim Gould Bronze. I've got the Nov/Dec 1990 'Winning' magazine with an article and all the results and pics.

I suppose I could scan them sometime if I was asked VERY nicely

Dear Old Ned -

as you are undoubtedly the wisest, wittiest and most sophisticated Retrobiker in the world (reputedly making Daniel Craig seem like a pikey old toss pot by comparison), I humbly beseech you to reveal your magnanimity, and unleash your bounty of retro goodness by scanning the magzine.

By doing so, you will be showered with kudos, bathed in good karma and entitled to a free drink or two should our paths ever cross.

Go on, you know you want to.
