If anyone from Blackburn deserves this great honour, Its this guy, Carl Fogarty, what he has achieved on the race track, is nothing short of spectacular, He may be an ugly so and so, But he's Blackburn's ugly so & so,. and he's a bloody legend !!

Love it! Well deserved.

We have Fogarty park in cairns. Probably a distant relation but I still think of king Carl

A true legend he is and well deserved BUT surley there is a better way to use his talents hospice and hospital or walking ways ? for the enviroment? electric bikes etc.
