Dave Molyneux is one of the most prolific and determined sidecar racers in British history. His racing career has spanned an incredible thirty-one years. He has dominated the sidecar class at the Isle of Man TT, the most demanding road races in the world, with an exceptional tally of 14 wins, making him the most successful sidecar competitor in the history of the event. He has competed in British and European championships, Grands Prix and other races. This book tells, in his own words, his remarkable story. It describes his victories and defeats, the accidents and the other setbacks he has overcome, and reveals what makes him such an accomplished engineer as well as a racer. Dave Molyneux is the most successful sidecar racer in the history of the TT with 14 wins.

Format:Hardcover
This is a brilliant book for anyone who loves the IOM TT, or Sidecars in general. Superbly written, it truly captures the endurance and dedication needed in this sport. It also lays to rest so many of those rumours that have always unfairly followed Moly. A book that had been long overdue and certainly didn't disappoint.

As an ex rider in this sport I read half the book on arrival from amazon , odells book was the last book that had that Impact. just buy the thing if you have any interest in the Mental working of a top sportsman at the TT.
Format:Hardcover
Sidecar racing has always been the least reported class in the motorcycle press and books about the subject are few & far between. Dave gives a great insight into the cost of running a competitive sidecar team and the constant struggle he has had to find sponsors. His forthright views of the sport and rivals are refreshing and I would recommend this book to all road racing fans, I also think it would be of interest to fans of all motorcycle sport.
