The end is here
The world has changed and I am moving on

It is with a bit of regret, that I am announcing my retirement as a rider.

I have been thinking very hard about this over the last few months, and have decided that if I was to race again, I probally would not even get back to my best again since my big crash, and do not see the point in fighting for 10th place ( Respect to those that are still moving up)

I have had such a wonderfull 21 years chasing race meetings and my goals around the world, I got to live and race in Japan for 3 years, and hung out in the uk for a few years, as well as the USA and Italy and other countries.

In 1993 I gave up as a rider, and took on a roll as team manager for a Grand Prix 250 team, the team itself was excrement, the owner a liar and a con man, but the experience was really great, as well as the people I got to meet because of the position I was in. The owner ( Irish man) Still owes me 10-000 Pounds for a machine I paid for, he was to repay me but failed to.

I have been lucky enough in my racing life, to stand on a podium in 3rd place in a world championship endurance race in Malaysia, I have won a lot of championships in my country New Zealand, and have the honour of my 2 wins at the Isle of man TT races, so all in all, I have been really lucky, and have been given so much help over the years.

To all that have supported me, thankyou very much for helping make me the man that I have become.
