For anybody who has a passion for these things,this Doco/Movie is highly recommended.All the usual faces:the legendary John McGuinness,Bruce Anstey,the Dunlop’s & of course who can forget Guy Martin.

Yes i've seen one of the last few Brittens still racing at the Honda Bike Bonanza at Broadford Motorcycle complex (VIC) a few years ago.
Bloody beautiful looking and sounding bikes!!! This year was all.......' Vincents'........OMG there must have been 2Mill worth of them there on display. Was a very good weekend.

Being this thread is on these gladiators on open road racing it came back to me the days of Bathurst when it used to hold 2wheels on our hallowed place and sidecars.
I was a young fella back then but I remember Toombs/Hansford atm....and deaths/crashs that occurred back then. Just check out some of the early landscape in this link in the pioneering days. http://www.speedwayandroadracehistor...-panorama.html I loved AJ back in the day...... https://www.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=zJ30B5G3blk Lap Record (Superbike) this was the proper old track when Conrod was Conrod Straight ! 2:18.48 Michael Dowson riding a Yamaha FZR1000 (no date noted)
