While the big boys get the plaudits, this is superb. Something to aspire to.

Indeed very impressive, shame the person putting the caption on the photo at the bottom can't tell the difference between 82 and 83....

There’s hope for me yet

Covered before- but we can excuse ancient Yammy racers for possibly forgetting ? (or maybe on hols at the time)

I thought the same at first and switched the urine kettle on but then I read it properly.

Ted will be back next year racing his faithful Ducati bearing the number 83 to match his age.

So he's 82 this year (Hence the number) and will be 83 next year.

He's the bloody man. Wow he's an absolute hero!

82 and probably beat all of us in his class. Man thats inspirational.

Met Ted Fenwick today Top bloke too! He nipped in to drop a few things off at my site. Told me he makes regular visits to Elvington and that the top speed of the Duke does (Wait for it).....


108 MPH!!

Funny when I met him that he had the race winning Duke (which looked rather spiffing up close) tied up in the back of his Zafira Oh, and the Dukes up for sale! £3,000

Anyone fancy lending me 3k Jib?
