Motor Biker champion and legend Graeme Crosby from New Zealand to The Isle Of Man TT races this his his story in his words. 464 pages in good condition. Croz Larrikin Biker. In 1979 he made his way to Britain arriving with his worldly possessions in a carry-bag. His racing suit draped over his left shoulder, a scratched helmet in his right hand and just £150 in his wallet, he was ready to take on the world. Four years and two world championships later, he had achieved more than most riders could ever hope for in a lifetime of racing.

Graeme Crosby, or ‘Croz’, as he is affectionately known to millions of fans, went on to win Daytona 200, in which only six winners have been from outside the United States or Canada in Daytona’s 71-year history. He won Imola 200, the Suzuka 8 hour, and the notoriously dangerous Isle of Man Tourist Trophy in only his second year on the island at age 25.

In Croz’s final year in the Isle of Man, 1981, he was acknowledged as the best rider of the four-stroke machines in the world and smashed the lap record. He is the last of a certain breed of motorcyclists; he could, and did, ride just about anything.

He was adored by the Aussies as he rode true buccaneering style on a modified street bike against Australia’s best GP stars, and he shocked the Japanese taking on the mighty Honda endurance racing team, again on a modified bike, and breaking the lap record. He wowed the Brits coming fourth in his first attempt at the Tourist Trophy races at the Isle of Man and gained a superstar status, drawing crowds wherever he raced.
