It's not uncommon for sports personalities to become household names and top stars from the world of Football, Tennis and Formula One will be recognized by most people, however, for a British road-racer to achieve instant recognition is something of a phenomenon; indeed, not since Barry Sheene back in the late 1970s has there been a British motorcyclist with a higher public profile. Modest and self-deprecating, the Lincolnshire lad with award-winning 'sideburns' has become a bit of a TV personality whose cheerful enthusiastic approach and no-nonsense, self-deprecating, spontaneous, blokey style, often being likened to the late Fred Dibnah, has endeared him to millions.
