Bike Grand Prix Review: 1999
The story of Kate, a forty something headmistress in a small English village and her two single friends who get together every Monday to drink, eat chocolate and decide who is The Saddest Of The Week!
The definitive documentary about American motorcycle racing in the 1980's. 'On Any Sunday 2' features the pulsating sight of high powered cycles in the desert on the road and on tracks around the world. Includes interviews with Brad Lackey Bob Hannah Kenny Roberts and Bruce Penhall.
An entertaining historically significant record of motorcycle racing. In The Other Champions we cover racing classes other than the Blue Riband 500cc championship i.e. the lightweights from 50cc to 350cc and of course those modern day charioteers the sidecar racers. Pressure Money and The Need To Win features today's ultra-professional approach to motorcycle racing which has produced a new breed of rider. We hear from the first rider to present himself as a TV personality - Barry Sheene. Then as action footage unfolds we speak to several contemporary stars whose highly professional approach epitomises the sport today; Kenny Roberts Freddie Spencer Wayne Gardner and Kevin Schwantz to name but a few.
Bike Grand Prix Review: 2000
Sit back and enjoy the excitement of racing on the worl'd most demanding racetrack the Nurburgring in Germany's Eifel mountains. Plus take a look at some of the great races of the past including Geoff Duke's victory on the Gilera in 1955 and Kenny Roberts clinching world titles in 1978 and 1980.
This is the amazing story of how Yamaha claimed World Championship glory for four years in a row with action-packed archive race footage behind-the-scenes access and contributions from the racing stars delivering the story behind the headline-grabbing triumphs. Enjoy dramatic race action from legendary circuits like Assen Le Mans Silverstone Spa and more as the greats of motorcycle racing including Kenny Roberts Barry Sheene Giacomo Agostini Johnny Cecetto and Randy Mamola do elbow-to-elbow battle for World Championship honours. The first of these unique films follows the fortunes of American Steve Baker in his first season of World Championship racing. With exceptional footage from 500cc and 750cc races of 1977 plus interviews with Baker and other stars of the season we discover how the 'rookie' claimed a World Championship at his first attempt and was only beaten to the 500cc crown by the mercurial Sheene. In the next three films we relive one of the most amazing eras of motorcycle Grand Prix racing the reign of 'King' Kenny. Roberts burst onto the 500cc GP scene in 1978 and proved unstoppable taking the title not only in his first season but in 1979 and 1980 as well. He made it look easy but as these extraordinary films remind us the American superstar had to battle with the very best all the way to secure his hard-earned World Championship victories. The down-to-the-wire title chases of 1978 and 1980 are exceptional edge-of-the-seat viewing and the 1979 British Grand Prix is rightly regarded as one of the greatest motorcycle showdowns ever - the incredible footage on this DVD shows exactly why. We are also treated to rare on-board footage with Roberts contributions from experts like Kel Carruthers and the story of Christian Sarron's assault on the 750cc title in 1979. Yamaha: World Champions 1977-1980 is more than a simple racing review; unparalleled access to the riders and team members ensures you discover the stories behind the headlines and how history was made.
