Re: Introducing myself
Ok Russ,
Not sure about Cyril, but i think Ray Dunmore was one of the dozer drivers....Many of the the guys are retired now or sadly not with us.
I will ask the lads at work for any photos they might have and get them posted as i haven't seen any of Bradshaw's stuff on here.

Re: bitelli BB 670 & Chipper
This is me just getting to grips with my new BB670, just off the low loader in the mid 1990's
I found this machine difficult to steer on small housing estates, I did miss my BK
