One of the worlds greatest riders
Nearly forgotten these days, one of the worlds greatest riders from St. Helens, Lancashire deserves remembering today.
On this day, Sunday 28th March 2015, Geoff Duke, six times World MotoGP Champion and six times TT winner will be 92 years of age!
Happy Birthday Geoff!
