Timmys 1980 Brighton video of the A5 Scooter Club

[waiteyli150]

Just seen this vid for the first time and recognised Richard Griffin, in orange tshirt at 0:43, and a good mugshot at 1:43, who I went to school at St.Jo's in Aldershot with. Didn't know he was a scooter boy tho.

Just had another look at this and I'm on it - the guy in the green trench coat and white crash helmet, riding the pillar box red Vespa 150 Super (with the crash bars and L-plate) at 2.32 on the video, when the Essex Thunderbirds SC rides into town. The bloke on my right, riding the gold Lambretta 200 (in the yellow crash helmet & US Army parka) is my mate, Rus. Great days!

OMG just seen myself on this video 2.24 lad sitting on the blue vespa p series. Brings back good memories as a seventeen yr old scooter boy.

How times have changed. It's about time we did Brighton again like the old days.

Great video.

Great footage, music, and atmosphere. So, who was fighting at 1:00? Looks like a biker takes a boot to the back at 1:05.

This video is amazing footage long forgotten - Whats the song and who sings it..

Thank you. A lot of the kids in that film are now in their 50's and still in the Aldershot A5 scooter club!

The song is called Buffalo Ska by Bad Manners
