Conditions have covered the riders race jacket & there are no stickers or sponsors logos either to assist in identifying this rider. However, fans of a certain 'vintage' will have no trouble knowing who he is. The style is a dead give away, especially to supporters of the Robins

Swindon's Mike Keen on the outside of Reading's Bernie Leigh. Two riders who were never going to be World Champions but who gave many years of loyal service to the Robins & Racers.

Time for another unknown to take centre stage. Richard Evans rode a handful of meetings for Swindon over two seasons. He also rode a few times for second division clubs Weymouth & Milton Keynes. Let's see if we can make Richard a star on Twitter.

1️⃣4️⃣ years ago today, Lee Richardson tragically lost his life.
Although his time was cut devastatingly short, Lee left behind an incredible legacy and will forever be remembered as one of the best riders to have represented his country ❤️
