If you were not racing, what do you think you would be doing for kicks?

Kid on I’m the orange tango man from the telly.

What is your most embarrassing moment, and to juxtapose this, what is your proudest most triumphant moment?

Both from the sidecar days. Was embarrassed at a breakdown at Ouston on the last lap out last corner and thought outfit was going slow enough to jump off and push home for 2nd place. The only problem was we were doing 30mph and went arse over tit. Lucky for us we still finished 3rd.

Proudest would easily be the TT in 1989 first time there 14th and a bronze replica was bagged as well.

What is on in your iPod, mp3, CD player or even your stereo at the moment?

Heart Radio.

And finally, describe yourself in four words!

Old but still trying.
