Top man Bonnie, he won the German GP under Rolf Steinhausen's wing back in the 2 stroke days. A seriously quick man and a helpfull fella. We met him in about 86/7 at Hockenheim doing the German Championships. Bonnie sorted us out out in the paddock with electric as we were team GB generator and not very popular with the rest of the paddock!!!(Back then hookups in the paddock were rare in the UK) and with 2 strokes TZ 500H (5AO) you working well into the night. Happy Days!!!
So if you read this Bonnie some old friends say hello.
Cheers
Keith

Hi
any sidecar race in Oschersleben, Bohni is involved. One, of not many, who are still in the sport after finishing GP racing. Thanks Bohni.
Yes he is still mad...

He gave me a guided tour of Oscherleben a couple of years ago when he was the race director there. Really a good guy and very active in sidecar racing in Germany.
