That of course was my initial thought too Rick, but I but quickly realised these were taken after Keith had broken Masterblaster up as the quite reserved chap with long hair from Worcester (?) had bought the paintset for his B, pictured.

Nope, Joe was a White guy stuck inside a half caste' body
- He use to get some $hit down at the George, we use to go down there on a Sunday and wait for the flack about The "N" on the H2

Joe was going home from a bike rally (2weeks after the Nottingham rally) in the early morning and crashed/lost control on a bend on his ZXR750.
I had been sitting next to Joe in the Indian two weeks before
he used to say
"Bloooody H2oooos, I couldn't afford to buy one now!"
One of the originals who had been in the triples club from the beginning and a real nice guy.

Does anyone ever get out for a ride out in the Derby area
Does not seem to be much actual bike riding locally
