Hello everybody,

Always in order to complete my data base on British professional cycling riders and teams, I do believe that some of you will be able to answer to the following questions concerning the year 1966:

- Was Dave BURNS a professional or amateur licence holder?
- Has Ken HILL been riding for the Falcon Cycles professional team or as an Unsponsored professional licence holder?
- Has Jim NEEDHAM been riding for Woodrup Cycles or Holmes – Co-op Insurance Service? Or perhaps for both these two sponsors?
- Was Basil PERKINS a professional or amateur licence holder?
- Has Sean RYAN been riding for Ron Kitching or Bertin-Porter 39? Or perhaps for both these two sponsors?
- Achille VAN DER BRACHT has been riding in England. Was he a British or Belgian cycling rider? If British, was he a professional or amateur licence holder?
- Was John WOODINGS a professional or amateur licence holder?

In advance and waiting for positive answers I thank you very much for your kindness.

Best regards.
