Twostroke Tuesday. After Eddie Laycock revealed the iconic Millar Racing colours on the Paton that Mike Browne would ride at the TT, in memory of the late Gene McDonnell who lost his life 40 years ago, here is Eddie on the Millar 500 Honda at the Ulster Grand Prix, some pilot.

A few from the Bungalow TT 2026. #roadracelegends

Wheelie Wednesday with Eddie Laycock on board the Millar Racing 500 Honda at the Sunflower at Kirkistown. In that glorious era, the Sunflower attracted riders like Eddie, Gary Cowan, @RonHaslam @simoncrafar and top sidecars as well.

Wheelie Wednesday with Leslie McMaster. A cracking rider and one gentleman#keeping’erlit

The late Ian King, doing what he did best, a real crowd pleaser. A great crowd at this famous old road race….. if you know ….. you have been around for a while 😎🏁

When the Sunflower Trophy meeting attracted Grand Prix, World Champions, and top BSB riders to Kirkistown, it was a great annual event. Sadly we don’t see that quality now.

A great days racing at Bishopscourt, and in the Supersport race, @M_Dunlop3 gave the Triumph his first win after a cracking 4 way battle. The “Bull” showed that he is committed whether its roads or tracks.#classracing

Wheelie Wednesday as @PhillipMcCallen leads Brian Reid over the Carrowdore jumps. Sadly an extinct course, but a great course for photography. #classriders

The final @MotoGP85765899 of the season takes place today, and one of my favourite riders of the “Real GP” bike era Eddie Lawson, in action at the British Grand Prix in Donington Park.
