Guy Martin is amongst the entrants for the event and will be gunning for victory at his local track. He will be riding an ex-factory XR69 998cc Suzuki alongside experienced classic bike racer Lea Gourlay, and the pair will be keen to out-perform each other and expect a close finish 1 -2 or perhaps some of the other chaps might out perform them

The race is one of the CRMC feature races this weekend at Cadwell and promises to be a great turnout of Classic and Post Classic machinery

It will be great to see a celeb actually racing with the club instead of the usual parade sessions they usually partake in.

Any history on Guy's bike would be most welcome

Cheers


John
