In 1978 i was a teenage race marshall at Donnington park . Our spot was the top of the craner curves with my back to the traffic. my knees used to knock together! We were very close to the track with just a couple of hay bales for protection! I remember the kawasakis of Mick, Barry and Kork Ballington very well.

If only these ex riders retired and went on to run the country. Honesty, integrity and blunt as a sledge hammer. 😄

Couldn't agree more, Mike! Thanks for watching and enjoy the next two episodes 😊

Best quote. The rotten little hunchback. Hilarious. Top quality pod thank you.

Cheers Alan! There's more from Mick on Thursday and then next Monday with much more of the same humour and observations :-)

Mick Grant my era Dave what a rider luved the Kawasaki's back then I remember watching Mick at the transatlantic races at Brands and seeing him coming out of the pits back then just awesome . I also will never forget reading about the time when Peter Williams had his horrendous crash on the Norton it was a big story back then not sure of the year though in MCN that ended his career early what could have been for him he had a dealership in Southampton if I remember correctly .Sad to hear that Kawasaki treated Mick quite badly just shows that so much goes on behind the scenes and not in a good way . Can't wait for the next one 👌👍

Thanks Crumblymal, appreciated as always. So much goes in behind the scenes even today, it's a strange old world once you dip into paddock life. Thursday and Monday for episodes 2 & 3, full of incredible stories and possibly the most politically incorrect but funniest story ever early in ep. 2 🤣

Awesome Dave. This was my Dads Hero growing up. I dont think Mick would remember me now but I have done a few pre-65 trials with him and the Scottish 2 day trial back in 2013 when i was 18 years old riding a UPB Bikes Cub for robert moore. Would be nice to meet him again as I told him one day i will be road racing and I have just finished my first season in the BMW F900 cup. He has some great stories. Looking forward to part 2 :)

That's a great story, Jord! And congratulations on your first season in the F900s ✊🏼💪🏼
