Re: Ash Mitchell/ Steve Whittier

Post by BioTek »

I've put another thread up regarding a reply from Webber, I dont want to derail the track day thread anymore. :wink: Hopefully some of the other names I'm trying to remember may be familiar to others, I really want to get back in touch with the folks I used to ride with. I apologise for the somewhat poor information I'm offering but it's all I can remember, if you can hook me up please do, thanks.

yeah thats steve whitear, my main man,

Steve did have the lap record at pembrey 5 years ago till phil bevan got it.

Steves in daytona at the mo watchin our friend hodgson!!!

Whats your name and ill mension it to him,

By the way i dont suppose you know 'Chubby'?


Thanks Webber.
My name is Chris Philpott. Email addy is christopherphilpott@gmail.com
I knew Ashley and his wife Kath, I was aquainted with a bunch of other folks primarily meeting them through Ash.
I rode with a group of people (running in my SV) on a sombre trip to Hale, Cornwall to scatter some ashes for a fellow that passed on after crashing his Duc (Andy? Foggy rep? Forgive me if I remember incorrectly).
Met a bunch of other Exetarians at Brands in 99 when we all camped and I was the 4 wheel support vehicle (my CBi Refrigeration VW Transporter :wink: )
I also knew the folks in Seaton that rode, only really remember 1st names though.
Graham in Seaton, had a Bandit 12 but got shot of it for a red 2000 VTR 1000.
Nigel in Seaton, had a Duc 748 in Red Bull colours.
Dave Hellier in Seaton, had a green ZX9 and sold it for a blue R1.

Other aquaintances.
Mad Max from Exeter, had an old rat bike and a salvaged Fireblade, he'd ride around with jeans and flexible tumble drier hose and duct tape on his knee as a slider.
Colin from Exeter, he, as he once put it, "dug holes in the road for a living for the water board." Think he had a trick 'Camel' painted Honda?

Ian Flemming???? Not sure, I have a face stuck in my mind and hope it isn't the guy I'm picturing. RIP either ways. :cry: [/quote]

I live in Chard, but I don't see any ZX9's about. Though it is easily possible he changed bikes. :)
