:oi-grr:

[dickytoo]

10: Freddie Spencer

20: Pops Yoshimura



doesn't this have 9 letters (the clue said 8)? i thought it was yoshimura at first but it has one too many letters.

i think they were related by marriage, one being the son-in-law of the other. not sure who was what though.

nope, just discovered that moriwaki was pops' grandson

[Mort]

sorry mate - Yoshimura was the answer I was looking for... my fault - I can't count.

[MisterD]

11) Foggy's boss (6,8)
26) 500cc Italian twin - often orange (8)

:oi-grr:

11) Davide Tardozzi?

[dickytoo]

sorry mate - Yoshimura was the answer I was looking for... my fault - I can't count.

you probably need to take off your shoes! - i find it helps sometimes:laugh:

that's ok, i found out the exact nature of the relationship between the two.

[gav]

:headbang:'Well I posted Yoshimura and was hoping you were more likely to be wrong (with # of letters) than me! :innocent:
Foggy's boss? Michalea Fogarty? :shit:

[Mort]

11) Foggy's Boss - Davide Tardozzi

Just one left...

26) 500cc Italian twin - often orange (8)

[gav]

You sure about the number of letters? <_<

[Mort]

yep..............

[Mort]

OK...

Answer for 26 is "Montjuic" as in Laverda Montjuic.

Good effort all... the next one will be a bastard.

[Trouser]

26, Laverda (ah crap only 7 letters. They liked orange though.)
35, Benelli Sei


almost there. 26 should really have been two words.

[MisterD]

OK...

Answer for 26 is "Montjuic" as in Laverda Montjuic.

Good effort all... the next one will be a bastard.

Where does the orange bit come in? Mont Juic is a hill in Barcelona as far as I know...

[Mort]

The Laverda Montjuic was a 500cc parallel twin made in the early 80s . It was orange (but there were other colours too).

It wasnt supposed to be easy :msn-wink:
