Hi there I used to be a regular visitor to Box hill and was also a female professional racer and photo journalist for a number of magazines, including FB and Bike and have also featured in MCN. I am now selling some of my most precious and unique motorcycle gear.. and have just put an ad on Classifieds for my leathers, helmets, boots and gloves so if you're looking for some professional gear, do go look!

I was flown out to Italy to the Dainese factory for them to make the first girls made to measure leathers, so these are totally unique and lovely.

Quick question though do they still have a noticeboard at Boxhill to put bike gear photos on to sell? Is this the best place to sell, any advice would be great.

Miss biking loads, especially racing, track days and enjoying this weather, but currently expecting my second child, so not a good hobby for me at the moment...

Yes they do, ask Kelly or Karen in Rykas, or anyone in there in fact.

Cue Mike Hailwood reference... Wink Smile

Depending on who you believe, or what you read, invention of "knee down" is credited in various places to various different people, including Jarno Saarinen, Paul Smart, & Kenny Roberts.

Following on from that, how many motorcyclists now wave a leg around going into a corner? Now that was started in MotoGP by a certain Mr Rossi I do believe.
