STOCKPORT CRUISADERS

TO ANIMALS FAE NABOOMBU – THIS CLUB HAS THE LOT!

-

So... let’s meet the team. Oldest (but not necessaril­y most mature) first.

1: Gerry ‘The Piper’ Ferguson, 56, owns Vespa PX200 and 150 super. Ex-Animals fae Naboombu SC... one day we will get an interprete­r.

2: Paul ‘Peter Pan’ Stafford, 56, owns a Lambretta LI 150 (200) and Vespa PX 200. Ex-Stafford Boro Upsetters SC and probably the best-looking member of the club.

3: Stuart ‘Nice Tackle’ Walsh, 54, owns a Vespa PX200 and GTS 300. ExStockpor­t Crusaders SC... and all round nice guy.

4: Mark ‘Gooner Sarge’ Sargeant, 52, owns a Vespa PX200. A famous face on the Adelaide United terraces and 40+ year Aussie resident.

5: Martin ‘El Presidente’ Lindley, 50, owns a Lambretta TV175 and GP RT195, ex-Sheffield Northern Line SC. The backbone of the club who goes above and beyond.

6: Lee ‘Shabba’ Smith, 50, owns a Lambretta Li150 and API175. Another ex-Stockport Crusaders SC and DJ at our monthly ska/Mod/soul night

7: John ‘Tent Poles’ Hodkin, 49, owns a Lambretta Li186, GP 200 and Vespa PX200, ex-Trojan Horses SC. Not a ‘van Mod’ at all.

8: Steve ‘The Quiet One’ Lewis, 49, owns a Lambretta GP150 and long suffering husband of Laura who rides one of those Vespa twistie things.

9: Mark ‘Laingy’ Laing, 48, owns two Vespa PX200s and is an ex-Alcoholic Rats SC, Brisbane. Larger than life character, ex-Ayr Mod, 30 years in Oz.

10: Mikey ‘Barn Find’ Erdelyi, 47, owns two Vespa SS180, a Douglas Rod model, and three Iso Milanos. Probably half the scooters in the club have passed through Mikey’s hands at some point.

11: Simon ‘Pearly’ King, 46, owns a Vespa PX200 and is a typical cockney wide boy with a sense of humour to suit. Can’t dance though.

12: Paul ‘I’m In The Pub’ Davison, 45, owns a Lambretta series 2 (and half a GP). Ex-Aylesbury SC. A top geezer.

13: Darren ‘Rock Star’ Allison at 43 he is the baby of the club, and owns a Lambretta TV175 and TV200. Lead singer with the famous Adelaide band ‘The Mod Cons’ (taking bookings now, very reasonable rates).
