Old racers have great stories. And they don't get much greater than these two.

Thanks Steve and Mick, great laugh and great nostalgic trip back through 60's and 70's

I saw Mick and Steve racing many times in the 70's.

Thanks guys a fantastic and entertaining video !

Thanks Steve & Mick. One of the best of this series. Great laugh, great guys.

Guys , thank you so much, absolutely brilliant , i loved watching you guys in the 70,s , Micks IOM lap record on the Kwaka epic..

Absolutely brilliant. I saw both of them race in the late 70s and early 80s. Their love of the sport still burns bright.

Tremendous. I've been lucky to see Mick racing on roads and short circuits both in England and Northern Ireland. He's a tremendous competitor and was always near the sharp end of any race he was in.

Dad got him his first sponsor, Jim Lee, they remained good friends until dad died, he wrote some kind words that I included in my eulogy.

What a cracking conversation, enjoyed every minute of this.

Brilliant Could Listen To Mick And Steve All Day Long Thanks.

Great stuff, we won't hear the likes of these stories ever again as corporations, sponsors and pressure etc have killed this side of the sport.

good chatter guys. brings back nice memories

Brilliant interview - bought back so many memories and heroes from my youth👌

Brilliant show! I was at the 1975 TT, and will never forget Mick Grant on the Kawasaki's. A great era. Cheers

Wounderfull amazing never give Mick Grant a second of thought..now forever a fan fantastic

Thanks lads brill talk show

Loved Parish’s tale of Read’s advice on getting safely down Sulby straight, Steve’s RG500 going lock to lock under full throttle in 5th & 6th. Phil advised right down the middle. Steve asked “is that smother?”. “No”, said Phil, “The trees are further away”.

This really is a cracking interview, from great days gone by .

I remember when he came to Australia and rode at one of our `Racetracks ( Oran Park) but it was designed for cars .. so Mick didnt want to take any Risks riding too hard there .. but great of him to come all the way to Aust for the Fans .. Well done Mick !

Great man... Great sportsman. Great interview 👍

I spent an amazing Saturday evening in the Spa Ballroom, Scarborough, chatting with Mick Grant, Barry Sheene, Graham Crosby. I think it would’ve be 1978 and the sponsor was Vladivar Vodka … happy days.

I met mick at goodwood revival one time, what a great guy and terrific rider.

Great to see that you're doing what you like and enjoying it very good show what a laugh remember mick at the North West on the big suzuki,, Thursday evening practice out on the track but conditions were bad,, cancelled,, hopefully Scarborough gets a good turn and is successful 😁😁☘️☘️☘️☘️from Northern Ireland greatly appreciated thank you

I was there at Silverstone when everyone was lined up on the grid with two blank spaces and no long_awaited Hondas, then, after what seemed like a very silent lifetime those two started in pit lane and very loudly blipped their way onto the grid at what sounded like at least 12000 spine tingling rpm. The sound was electrifying but sadly ended in a ball of flames shortly after the start. Happy memories of a never to be repeated pre unpolitically correct era.

Had one of those TT nights in Round Bar ,George Turnbull on piano ,Mick and Niel Tuxworth relaxing .

Saw Mick Grant many times, great racing man!

Great interview.

Brilliant lads,enjoyed this very much.Thank you.

Dos grandes,. Cuántas historias. Bonito

Both guys I grew up with idolising and still do today ...proper racers they mentioned a young man James witham same breed same talent

Legend that is MG, saw him on the Norton at TT and MV at Scarby, awesome.

Really enjoyed this. Thanks for uploading.

Brought back loads of memories, thanks for that.

This show should arrange an interview with American Pat Hennen. Short but brilliant career. 🏁✌️👍🏆🇺🇲

Thanks guys in the 70s I watched you all at Olivers Mount in the 70\s magic days,and Bazza,thank you

Brilliant banter, top guys

That was a great entertaining video !

I remember watching Mick race with Barry Sheene at Scarborough. Awesome .Tried it around track after meeting and wondered how the fk do they go round here so fast .Think I managed about 30 mph 😀

Hilarious Memories Two Great X Racers

Bloody hell, I used to work for Gerald Brown. Those many year's ago.

No the trees are further away! Hahahahahahahahaaaaaa

Myself and Ron Bat rode/raced that RG 500 after Mick had finished with it. The bike was purchased by my mate Chris Jerome's. Just saying.

such trill to mr grant i read his book on the tt am not a racer but so cool see him and fact he such charcter.read the book in mid 80, s think i still have it.the book i mean .

Never stopped laughing at the stories...reminds me of the pranks described in the Gerhard Berger book GB pulled on Nelson Piquet and Michelle Alboreto.

The AMA or Moto America should do events like this there are many American racing legend riders in the states and Canada all we get is vintage days .I'm not knocking vintage days . It would be nice to see legends in the usa

Brilliant.

My name is mukantakiyimana vestine form rwandan . I love you

Jeez I only sat through this to find out the raffle ticket number and it cut off....

Stand Fast Craigellachie ❤

Along way from Barrington village hall

I got his sr name as my Christian name, mum and dad were big fans.

Mick is my friends dad

I remember at the Island the commentator saying that gritty Yorkshireman will get it done... Will never be repeated, great days.

Check out Yorkshire rose cha..el and discover cha

Down to earth conversation what more can you want Well unless you are from the south that is ???????????????????? This is what the southern folk simply don't get more to their loss If you can talk honestly and with soul you can do anything cut the crap cut the pompous in fill you can have fun you can have a good honest chat and get to know what folk really are like !!

Parrish must have been a cop, as he spent most of his formative years undercover.

Those pictures cant have been from 75, as hi-viz wasnt invented yet

Great show; but to say youngsters these days don't know what 've hit them is a bit short sighted. A teenager named M. Verstappen was 17 when he started in F1! Look where he is now.

dommage ce n'est pas traduit en français

Don't like Parrish I had my classic bikes at iom about 5 years ago he walked by us every morning about two feet away never looked our way once yet Phil Read, Pat Hennen, Ferry Brouwer, all the top modern riders of today stopped by to talk to us .

Steve parish was an absolute waste of a gp ride, no commitment very scared rider,no hoper, as has proven.

Great show guys! You two lucked out, I say that because you raced in not only UK, but on the Continet. & IoM. Wher eis USA we dont get to such places in 70s 80s 90s... no internet, no one would sponsor us to go to UK or IoM as I wanted to. We dont get start $ in America, so lopsided unreal, KR would get $ from say Laguna Seca, we'd have to pay entry, gate, insurance, etc and pay out if ya won, was terrible! First time i won National on 750 Tri is got,,, ready? $40.00 and no trophy! I was PISSED!!! Racing in USA is terrible for making a living, we paid the lot, my sponsor was HAP JONES and great old boy, I we wanted to go to Daytona had to call HAP (I have 10 wins there!). I was racing in westwood BC July 1990 guest of honor was Geoff Duke! I was signing autographs we got in line, had club t-shirt with Geoff on Gilera, so I slid the shirt under his nose & his face lit up! He said; "Whats' your name?" I replied: Michael Green! and Geoff says... "How's your Dad?" we about died! Dad was Dickie Green of Aston Martin racing, Geoff had drove for Aston and Dad was his mechanic (Mum was John Wyers secretary!). I won 250Gp race flag to flag,i think 350GP (or it was year before)... I was loading up for the run home to California. "Where ya going Michael?" Geoff asks... Home! "What about teh 500 race?" They wont let me race because I dont have a 500... I said. :"dont go anywhere, I'll be back" and back he was, with the 4 Canada guys in charge -who know me. They were against "bumping up inot another class, always worried about the Other guy! Total BS! Geoff makes it known "we use to race every class we could get into over in Europe just to make a pound" The Locals said: "You can race 500GP on your 350 Ducati but you start last, no points, no prizes, no nothing" -GD didnt like that! I started 67th on th grid. On warm-up alp was busy getting AVONs up to temp and front drum brake warm so i could adjust the cable!! No one watching me, grid was bias LEFT each ROW was of FOUR... I was DEAD LAST on teh drid-which now had 4 more guys from California on 350s because I got in. The pulled up on the back like cordwood... I however was last on the grid, delaying start on purpose -lead bikes tyres would cool; and I was 2 row further back and bike pointed at 45 angle .. Flag went and by turn 2 I was 8th! yes in deed! then took me 14 bloody laps to clear the fast MANX;'s ext I WON it on the line! Geoff went mad!!! When i arrived at Victroy lane, I wasnt suppose to be there, the Canada guys gave my trophy to a local who got beat! Geoff was ticked, buy said: "In all my years of racing, Never haev I seen a start such as that." WestCoastBritishRacing dot you know
