vintage Mike Hailwood clip -1964

Great clip. This is for all you wannabe cafe racers out there - get yourself a pudding bowl helmet, some tight leathers and balls of steel  ;D

What a rockstar he was.  I just finished reading his biography - inspiring does not begin to cover it.

I had the pleasure to watch him race and win on the Ducati in the photo at the TT races in 1978, the bike was over for the centenary of the TT earlier this year so I took a snap. The guy in the photo wearing the leathers was also in the race but his bike didn’t finish …it was a Honda!  :o

He looked like he was just out for a sunday afternoon ride, like he wasn't even trying.
Good video.

          Always been a fan of his from what I'd seen in magazines and what I'd read. I'd never seen him race before. Very impressive racer, for sure! 8)   Thanks for posting. ;)

                                         Later on, Bill :) ;)
