Born on 2nd April 1940 in Oxfordshire, Mike Hailwood was a British Grand Prix motorcycle road racer regarded by many as one of the greatest racers of all time. Known as "Mike The Bike" because of his natural riding ability, he won nine motorcycle World Championships between 1961 and 1967. Later in his career he went on to compete in Formula One auto racing, becoming one of the few men to compete at the Grand Prix level on motorcycles and in auto racing. You can visit Mike Hailwood's official website here.

On 3rd June 1978 after an 11 year break from motorcycling, Hailwood made a legendary comeback at the Isle of Man TT. The 38-year-old managed a hugely popular win. This Kiddimoto superbike is styled on the bike Mike Hailwood rode in that race.
