Heres a new one - just as an aside...

Who would you get to promote your biking event / website / what ever if you were trying to appeal to the 18-25 demographic ?

Its a toughie.

Take it as read Spiddie is top of list B, along with David Beckham & Steve Mcqueen and Jim Davidson, & Jeremy Clarkson (those youve got no chance with or you wouldnt want anyway)...

I dont think we will beat Ewan & Charlie & Ian Wright for the A list - 25+ demograph....

so whoever suggested Ian Wright

Was me

come on then Runt - is it ok to call you runtie ?- start us off with a good un for the youngsters ....

I think the best so far i sthe prodigy guy - is it the one with the stupid hair? - but i dk if he appeals to tennagers or 30yrs olds with teenage tastes ?

Yep, Keef is the one with the hair To be honest it's probably 30+ year olds, as I was a lot closer to teen age when the Prodge were big (just checked, Firestarter was in 1996!)

Yeh i doubt Keith from the prodigy is relevant to teens anymore. The prodigy started when i used to go out raving and man that was a looooooooong time ago.
Most teens would probably go "who" just before they stabbed you and run off with your wallet and bike keys, giggling like mad in their hoody. Innit tho.

Erm, whats relevant to teens now days? Mainly rap/hip hop/street sounds i guess. pirate radio stations still remain as credible as ever tho so maybe tune into a couple of those pete and see who's current these days.

if it aint your thing let me know as i only listen to pirate radio but i never keep track of who's who...but i'll make a list if you like. DJs & MCs are still big celebs in those circles to the yoof of today.

If you want another footballer I think Alan Smith has a bike - he was definitely interviewed at a MotoGP race earlier in the year so I reckon it's a fair bet.

Cheers,
Matt

I heard something along the lines of him phoning up one of the newspapers that Richard Hammond does a column for and asking if he could have it if the Hamster didn't pull through after his accident.

Just a rumour though, I daresay it's been misquoted or taken out of context.

ouch - tharts a bad rumour to have going around about you !

Nothing against Steve Berry - but he's a journalist - not a celeb...

Alan Smith is a brilliant one !!!! thanks for that - footballers are good cos they appeal to a wide cross section.....

Thanks for the offer Zig - yea, any help much apprecaited, but dont go for anyone too obscure, as above, they need to be nearly as famous as Allan SMith or Ian Wright - ideally....
