I am refurbishing the Blithfield GKN Silver Tiller Trophy. Unfortunately the plaque to record the winners in 1977 is missing. Does anyone have a record for that year? It has been suggested to me that a Year Book / Magazine for 1977 / 1978 may record the information.

The 1978 Year Book records the winner on 19 March 1977 as P. King in "Mischief Maker" 2578.

With some further research I can also give you 2nd & 3rd places. These are Paddy Atkinson (Bolton SC) "Special Brew" 2847 and Kevin Haynes (Nottingham SC) "Phantom Rider" 2398 respectively.

Many thanks.
P Atkinson & K Haynes have their names on the trophy for few years in the 1970's but it is quite a number of years before P King is recorded again. He then gets in to the 'grove'.
