Riders you liked & supported over the years V riders you really don't like . . . .

[Grantc]

Keeping mine local.

 

Like Greg.

Dont think that needs explaining. Talented, hard working, hard playing, postive attitude.....

 

Dont like Nolan.

In the old days, he was a cheat, these days his work ethic and weight, puts undue pressure on his team mates.

Also local

 

Alan van Heerden - bought my first bike from his shop in '87. Did many a training ride with him, despite me being cart horse slow. Learnt a lot from him.
