3: A Boy, a Girl - and a Bike
. Reporter Jeremy James
'It's Jike being married to someone 'says Richard, talking about the way he feels about his bike.
'I wouldn't go out with someone who had a smaller bike' says Sonya, talking about Richard.
In June they set off, with a tent strapped to Richard's 85Occ Moto Guzzi. The film tells what happened to them and their friends during ten days on, the Isle of Man during TT week. RICHARD and SONYA want to discover whether the Island really is friendly to bikers, or whether the prejudices some have against leather-jacketed people on motorcycles apply here too. They want to have a burn-up round the course on Mad Sunday. They want to find out how their friends will do in the side-car races and whether former champion Phil Read will have any luck on his return after feur years' absence. They did all that and a great deal more.
