Tragic to lose yet another Two-wheeled god to the sport of roadracing....


But in todays Health&Safety governed world, diluted forms of sports which may cause harm, and income from TV broadcasting & product placement putting many sports out of reach to the average fan....

Britain & Ireland (in particular) Motorcycle's Roadracing scene is a throwback and one of the few sports not to be sanitised. Where fans can still feel in-touch with all the riders/teams, and witness men who "CHOOSE" ( fully aware of the dangers) to risk life & limb just for adrenaline rush, love of the sport & the glory.
