RE: Geoff Monty RIP
Talking about Geoff to some friends last night. There was a group including Geoff, his business partner for many years Alan Dudley-Ward and Harry Bostock, who built and rode J.A.B.S. - Just Another Bloody Special, but we could not think what they called themselves - can anyone - other than Ancient remember them?

Hi Bill

I'm 99% sure it was "Equipe S.P.O.R.T."

They did an awful lot of racing in Scowegia in the 50s
