If you would.

To mark the passing of Barry Sheene.

The man who managed almost single handedly to bring motorcycle racing to the general public. Legend in his own lifetime. RIP you'll be missed.

Aye. Top man. Gave me hours of pleasure.

Oh Geez. Hadn't heard. He had one of the greatest attitudes I have ever witnessed - tremendous courage and determination.

The man who inspired me to take up biking. Very Sad

I wasn't a bike racing fan but the guy had such a great attitude to life he was one of my favourite ppl. I only wish we had more sportsmen like him we might do a bit better in World competitions.
A really sad loss to the human race.

Yeah a loss. I always used to watch him and wanted a bike like his, the old 2-stroke triple, GT750. And then I got one and it was exciting.

He was before my time unfortunately, but he was a great commentator for Oz TV in his later days

A sadly missed sporting hero :cry:
