Barry Sheene Magnets

I've been threatening to do this for years, hand colouring my original black and white photo, taken trackside at Mallory Park, to the actual sampled colours of the day. Sheene starts from 14th at Mallory Park, UK, and wins. Even King Kenny Roberts of the USA described Sheene as the greatest motorcycle racer of all time. Here he wheelies out of a bend. Losing was never in his plans.

Hope you like it.

Barry Sheene was one of the biggest sports stars of the Seventies, a household name who won two 500cc world motorcycle titles and crashed his way onto the evening news. Flamboyant, incorrigible, rude and brilliant, he was the maverick playboy your gran would like.
