Desmo Due in Motorcycle Sport & Leisure mag

Nice 3-page spread in MS&L (August) from Malc Kirkham who was the guest rider way back in Round 1 at Cadwell.

Pics of a lot of riders including Geoff, myself and GTH. Writeup mentions Dickie and Rattler among others.

A cool little keepsake to show the grandkids

Here are scans of the pages, there's in super-low quality so you can see the pics but can't read the text - go out and buy a copy if you want to read it!

I'll sum it up in bullet points

Multistrada too slow rider is way quicker in the bends
Rider has trouble starting but no problem passing the riders back
Multistrada too slow rider is way quicker in the bends
Rider thinks most of the grid were born after his last race in 1985 LOL
Multistrada too slow rider is way quicker in the bends
Rider enjoys showing the 'youngsters' how old he is
Multistrada too slow rider is way quicker in the bends
A hint of cheating as some bikes are way quicker on the straights, nothing to do with corner exit speed
Multistrada too slow rider is way quicker in the bends

But hey publicity is publicity even if anyone reading thinks we are all 25 and under and some are on cheating bikes

...and the fact that Malc weighs twice what the front runner does!
