"..I broke the screen of the fairing with my throat. With my heart rate so high the blood just pumped out all over me and my bike. I could feel the blood spraying around in the wind.

At first I didn’t realise where the blood was coming from. I knew it was not my mouth but when somebody passed me with blood on their screen and helmet I knew it was certainly flowing from somewhere. The racer in me kept me going to eventually finish tenth.."

For a never-was racing fan like me, the level of skill, courage and borderline mental illness required to compete to win in any motorcycling racing championship is humbling.
