British Superbike Suzuki triple champion to ride at show
We were the first publication to bring you the news that four stars of cult motorcycle movie On Any Sunday are headed for the Stafford show, and now we can confirm that three-time British Superbike champion John Reynolds is also set to appear as part of the Suzuki Village.
The UK arm of the Japanese giants has teamed up with the event organiser to bring classic Suzuki owners’ clubs and traders into one jam-packed marquee as part of the event, and John will be on hand to chat with visitors about this racing career and current role within the Suzuki team.
Reynolds will be among several star guests to attend the annual Stafford weekend, taking his place among such motorcycling luminaries as Dave Aldana, Don Emde, Mert Lawwill, Gene Romero, John Cooper, Jim Redman and event compere Steve Plater.
Classic Racer magazine editor Malc Wheeler believes Stafford showgoers will be excited to see the man who holds one of the most impressive BSB records in history: “When you look at the career of John Reynolds and the success he enjoyed over so many years, his career is up there with some of the best that Britain has ever seen.
“He competed against and conquered some of the top names in the business – any man who can count Neil Hodgson, Steve Hislop and Niall Mackenzie among his main rivals was clearly doing something right.
“John will surely have many fascinating stories to tell and visitors who come to hear them will not be disappointed.”
