You might have caught motoring artist Paul Chenard at last year's Goodwood Revival marketplace; he typically specializes in sports/racing cars from the 1930s-60s.  As with many 'car guys', he has a secret love of motorcycles too, and sent this pastel drawing of Mike Hailwood's legendary comeback win at the 1978 Isle of Man TT on his Ducati 900ss.

Paul, how about an older racing motorcycle to test your motor-sketch skills?  If you want to stick to Italian, the supercharged Gilera 'Rondine' winning the 1935 Tripoli GP would do nicely!
