and this one is not the best looking but for us Kiwis one of the most important:

if you were ever lucky enough to see this in action it looked and sounded awesome. And ridden by another Kiwi legend too.

Not only a legend..but a true GC too. You'd not meet a nicer guy.

True that - super polite. I met him once when he was a rock star (he was a rock star back then) in '99. He didn't know me from shite other than I was a just another nobody working in the bike racing scene - he was super polite and accommodating - a real contrast to to most of the riders at the time...especially the European ones. Especially Fogarty.

Hah...yeah from what I've heard...Fogarty is the racing worlds biggest tossbag. His book made him sound like one for sure. I've met quite a few tossers in my time though. Anthony Gobert takes the cake...and as good as Mat Mladin is...he sucks arse too.

Fogarty was a total arse. So was Doohan while I'm at it. Both of them were the biggest two arses when I was there.

I actually found Gobert to be ok....as long as you were in the mood to party and get wasted. He bought a lot "calm the fuck down and have some fun" attitude to the paddock....as he would say; "for fucksakes I'm being paid to race bikes don't tell me to be serious!" Each to their own I guess. If he didn't race either drunk or with a hangover he would've won or got close to a championship....but nobody could stop him getting wasted ALL THE TIME!

Never met Mladin.
