Awesome stuff.

Great to see Duncan in his solo career and then went to be a great sidecar RH driver. Sadly a bad accident in Ludinghausen ended his racing career.

RIP Murray Walker. The best motorsport commentator there ever was.

Incredible to think grasstrack was on the bbc

[@chathamabs2011]

Bobby Schwartz: nice humble answer in the interview. Top bloke👌

[@cwnapier67]

He was a great rider always in the shadows of Penhall and almost as good. Didn’t they ride on the same team at one time.

Greenways finest.

Hi Martyn. Did you ever get to the Wimborne Whoppa grasstrack meeting in the seventies?Used to attract plenty of big names from speedway. Seem to remember Graham Hurry was the top grass track rider back then. Great racing days and as for the sidecar boys legends!

I still go to the Whoppa now!! Saw many fantastic riders win, Morton, Schofield, Wigg, Simmons to name a few.

proper speedway bumps and all

[@sueneilson896]

Grass track until the first race, not much grass left after that.

Walker was a bit irritating in this. I couldn't watch it all. Commentating on a video in front of himself. Probably wasn't even at the race
