Nice one Larry your in good company lot of these road racers tell a lot of lies about there age.

John Williams was a good one, we got stopped by the law boarding the Belfast boat at Liverpool 78 or 79 during the troubles. Plod asked our ages while checking our drivers licences. John obviously not wanting to divulge it in our presence he told a massive porky while plod was studying his drivers licence, so plod hauled him off for further enquiries. He never did tell us his real age.

The best was former Continental Circus rider and T.T. rider from 1948 to 1967 and travelling Marshall Albert Moule

Albert was a great friend of mine from when I was 16, was at his house once and saw a photograph of him as a red coated British officer complete with a white ols police type helmet, leading a troop of turbaned lance carrying Indian cavalry in the Kyber pass or somewhere on the North West frontier taken around 1900.

How do you work that one out if he was still racing in 1967 when the ACU licence holders age limit was 55 which meant he should not have been born until 1912?
