If you've ever watched "On Any Sunday", (the original version with Steve McQueen), you'll know that a lot of the action centres around a racer called Malcolm Smith.
Malcom is now in his late seventies, he's an amazing guy and it's fascinating to hear him talk about his bikes and his racing.

If you like classic off road stuff watch this, Malcolm shows you and talks about the bikes he raced:-

If you haven't watched "On Any Sunday", why not?

Here's the link, in fact you're probably better off watching this first to get an idea of what Malcolm achieved:-

Enjoy!

Love on Any Sunday (and Dust to Glory, perhaps more so).

Had dreams of entering the Baja 1000 for a long while Smile


Malcolm, talented, heroic, one of the nicest people on the planet it seems. And still now, so much enthusiasm for the bikes and races.

'On any Sunday'...life affirming goodness.

Just watched 'The Story of MotoGP' film, from its beginnings in 1949 until 2016.
Really good.

Cheers for the headsup chaps. Thumbs Up

With a tittle like "Living Legend" I thought Sid was talking about me.

I love those sort of films, give a sort of Heritage to the bikes I like to ride or the feeling of being part of that community.
