Yes I seem to remember the banners being wrong, also there was a huge furore at Mallory one year with someone riding naked around the outside of the circuit and in the paddock. I also remember going to Brands for a leg of the trophy- Ah Easter weekends! Freezing cold wet and pushing the bike home!

The great man Barry Sheene, RIP.
Modern day fairy pooftahs like Valentino Rossi are not even worthy to clean his boots.
The ’70s were the days of real men, and real racing, on evil-handling, fire-breathing rocketships that tore tyres apart, and made frames flex like they were made of cardboard.
Barry Sheene was the man!

Hi, was at Oulton park when Baz knocked a young police woman over when she was directing traffic in his Rolls on the way out of the paddock.
She picked herself up and was ok .
Baz opened the window and shouted ” all right love”. Nice flash of blue knickers.
