Mike Hailwood ~ 30 years passed

On the 30th anniversary of the passing of Mike "The Bike" Hailwood, I felt it appropriate to post a link worth reading for those of you in need of a history lesson.

If you have time, how about hoisting a glass, or sparing a moment of silence in memory of "The Bike".

Thanks, FunF. Good stuff, there.
