Barry Sheene - 1979
Came across this video set on YouTube today. Great view of motorcycle racing back in the 70's. Also provides a (funny) perspective of TV coverage too that hopefully won't offend too many female members of ninjette.org - but it's pretty benign.
I love MotoGP today, and the technical advances, but there's a lot to be said for the raw untamed power of racing back in the 70's and 80's. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNX4M...ture=fvwp&NR=1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNX4M...ture=fvwp&NR=1 |

Looks like youtube nerfed the videos, unfortunately. Love hearing about that guy, seems like a character that would have been interesting to watch in his prime.
