  • There was plenty of drama in the part one of the Barry Sheene Memorial Trophy race at Revival this year. The two wheeled spectacle featured classic bikes from Norton and Triumph cutting through the downpour with legendary riders like John McGuinness and Michael Dunlop in control.

      I have a 1958 racing bicycle, no mods aside from slightly more modern brakes and chain, still give it the beans to a point. No point hanging these machines on walls or sitting in a museum, they were meant to race.

      @Mil-Keeway Před 7 lety +28

      I'm sure their tires are brand new with good tread, warmed to a good temperature, and the track is spotlessly clean and perfectly smooth.
      If you fall on a race track (like Corser does here), absolutely nothing happens, there's barely any risk. If you have a slide IRL, you get wrapped around a tree, light pole, etc.
      So don't worry about it, road and track riding are completely different.

      My father handed on the legend of Rudge to me. Telling me stories of his youth with BSA's Norton's and Vincent's. He told me Rudge amalgamated with Whitworth an engineering company and British manufacturer. Whitworth established the standard BSB or British Standard Whitworth. I still have some Whitworth spanners in my tool chest. Reminds me of Rudge when I come across them.

    Class act by Goodwood and all the racers involved as usual.
    I was lucky enough to attend a couple of events there , and let me tell you , between this and any Canadian motorcycle event , there is NO COMPARSON .
    At Goodwood we saw competitors treating each other with respect and good natured friendship . The races were run in a competent and professional manner .
    At Canadian events , of which I have attended AND competed in MANY , there exists such a culture of attitude , both arrogant and mean natured , that true enjoyment of the sport is difficult to achieve .
    As well , Canadian " fans" tend to be the least loyal when it comes to standing by " their " favorite riders when someone has an off day and doesn't make the podium .
    That in fact suited us fine because if we came in 3 rd or forth place , we didn't have to worry about some " fan " making off with a " souvenir " from our pit area should we win that day.
    On the weekends we did win , the security ropes came out before the brown nose " fans" would descend on us .
    My mechanic even had his wallet lifted from his back pocket one day at Shannonville when he was standing too close to our security ropes around our pits. Of coarse being Canada , there were " no " witnesses .
