Got an email from a mate. Contained a photo. Thought the collective might be interested. Anyone know this bloke?
"At Broadford this weekend was the most amazing bloke I have ever seen. Alan Kempster.
Yep, he is missing right arm and right leg. He needs someone to stick it into gear before he leaves the collecting area, then he is away. I have no idea how he stays on round left handers. He crashed twice at the weekend, one a real big high side. Both on right handers!!!!
He even hopped back to the bike and tried to lift it and get back on!! Talk about wont give up, true determination.
He had a head on with a truck 20 years ago. Has not ridden a bike since but decided he wanted to have a go again, and there are no MA rules that say he cant have a licence. He had to convince MVIC he could control a bike, which he did, and they gave him his licence. This was his fourth meeting.
FUCKING AMAZING!!!!!"
And an appropriate racing number to boot.
