Author: Michael Scott
Barry Sheene, one of history®s great motorcycle racers, proved his skill with 19 Grand Prix wins and two World Championships. He added ambition, intelligence and vision to his Cockney charm ž and it made him formidable. No other rider had seen the big picture so clearly. Starred in high-profile ad campaigns, and in London®s fast social set, he played the media to charm the public and his personal courage in facing serious injury made them love him more. Even after retirement Sheene remained famous ž racing®s first two-wheel superstar. Michael Scott, author of Haynes® inspirational Wayne Rainey biography, tells Sheene®s full story, including his heroic fight against cancer.
