Me, half a season on a TZ250
Dad did a couple of meetings at Lydden on it then passed it on to me.

Karl Bennett - but he's also competed in rallies, so 2, 3 and 4 wheels!

Is that the TZ that Graham owns now ?

Also Graham raced on 2 and 3 wheels .

How about
3 wheels
then 2 wheels
then 4 wheels
then 3 wheels
then 2 wheels
then 3 wheels ... again

Yep, ONE of his TZ's the one he got road legal years back, he had it painted in Kenny Roberts colours with the big LC engine in it.

Rode an RS125 Honda at Lydden back in 96, raced sidecars,passenger and driver, and karts, test drove a Malloc 1800 raceing car at Mallory in 1997,felt like watching paint dry !

Have done 2 3 and 4 wheels but those 2 wheeled ones fall over

Ah ... you mean the one we thought Gilbert was going to die trying to bump start outside of your mums house , after one of the parties in the old days .. lol

me.... cb350k4 ( first race bike), RD250lc and 350lc, yz250 (aircooled in road chassis ) GT250a (early stock)

passenger on Gsx1100 (kat) windle, cbr600 (windle) Gsxr1100 long one (cant remember the make) all long time ago

Me!

Psssenger in the main.

But did do half a season on an MZ660 Skorpion (Bored out by Slick Bass to 690cc and I believe used to be used as a support class in WSBK) but I was pretty rubbish to be fair but being in the 600 class with the CBR's ect, I was never gonna set the world alight. Did do 2, 4 Hour enurances races too on an RGV250 and ZX6R.

Also had one attempt at driving. I did ok, got off the line side by side with Moly and thought I was a god.....then spat my passenger out at the first corner

I raced a solo three times. Our Ians 350 proddy bike in 78, then his TZ 750 in 81 and 82. Raced would hardly be the term for it though .
