21. Dave Molyneux - Part 2
38m
Dave Molyneux returns for part two of his chat with Chris Pritchard and Steve Plater on The TT Podcast.
The Manxman talks about his time competing at World and European Championships - including a surprise trip to Czechoslovakia - and compares how his goals changed as he gained more experiences of different races. He explains why he’s kept coming back to the TT.
A Royal visit to the TT in 2003 marred by rain and fog caused quite a dilemma for the sidecar drivers and passengers, and on the podcast Dave describes the awkward conversation he had to have with the Clerk of the Course!
He talks us through the impact of a crash in 2006, and how he managed to still win both sidecar classes in 2007.
Looking to the future of sidecar racing, Dave tells Chris and Steve that whilst he hopes he’ll see someone hit a 120mph lap of the Mountain Course, he’s equally aware of the need to bring new talent into the sport.
