I remember I did better in wet races than dry. Hated the wet, but had good brake and throttle feel and the wet evened up the bikes.

Yup - the one where Dennis Ireland's throttle jammed open and he nearly decapitated Don Morley...

I definitely bought it every week. Used to buy Motorcycle Weekly too,before it went tits up. It was the golden era of bike rags,they're all pretty shit now,nothing to write about and no one able to string together an entertaining story.

There was a sticker in that or maybe it was his 2nd in 77 but it's still stuck to an outside wall at my Mum's old house where I leaned out of my sister's window and stuck it out of reach of my Mum. You can't read the print now but I look every time I pass and it's still there :)
