Pretty amazing stuff - apologies if this has already been posted but couldn't see anything under a search for his name:

I saw this guy at the Oulton Park round on Bank Holiday Monday. There was lots of talk about him over the tannoys at the track. He wasnt the fastest by any stretch but probably a lot faster than any of us on here. To be fair, anyone who straps themselves to a nigh on 200bhp bike, with or without legs is brave in my book, but this guy is double brave. Credit where its due and good on him.

Yup - just to be one of the back markers is impressive enough. Aside from the fiddly hand controls, must be so hard not being able to grip the bike properly with your legs and knees.
