Macau Image - who is the rider?
Someone posted this on another forum I frequent.

Anyone tell me who it is?

Looks like the bikes will be back on the Gaia circuit this year - hopefully goes a bit better than the last time.

Looked him up and it’s not the same lid or bike.  It’s a dmr bike so I thought maybe Jimmy Storrar but the numbers and lid don’t match up…… stumped at the moment.

Good work chaps - much appreciated. From 2010 apparently.

A fabulous photo. I'm sure I've seen it before in one of Stephen Davidson's books?
Correct me if I'm wrong.

RE: Macau Image - who is the rider?
According to the link I posted previously  Icon_confused Icon_lol
it was actually 2007, & yes, taken by @Sdphoto, otherwise known as Steven Davison.
All my Davison books are actually in the loft, awaiting decoration of the front room, so I'm not able to check if it was actually in one! Confused

It's very similar to one taken of Steve Platter which I've seen quite a few times before - also by Steven Davidson. That may be what you're thinking of.

Must have been millimeters away from getting pitched off.

RE: Macau Image - who is the rider?
Yes you`re right Sam.
I dug out one of Stephen Davison`s books called `Ragged Edge` and the photo I was thinking of was in there.
