From a humble beginning to a world champion.

The book covers my early years of growing up in the UK before coming to Australia in the late 50s. I soon started motorcycle racing and rose through the ranks to A grade status, before travelling back to Europe to compete in the famous Isle of Man TT before joining the Continental Circus. 

I was fortunate enough to join the Derbi factory team and won their first GP at the TT in 1968. I went on to finish in 3rd place in the 1968 and 1969 world championship.

I returned to Australia in 1970 where I raced until 1979, I then returned to the Isle of Man and won the Formula 3 race on my 250cc Yamaha, I went on to win the TT again in 1980 and 1981 and won the World Championship in 1979 and 1981. 

Eventually retiring from competition in 1983 after 25 years of competitive racing.
