RACE FEATURE
When it comes to most sports, sibling rivalry has always been in evidence. In football there were the Charlton brothers, more recently the Brownlees’ brotherly performances in triathlons have been hard to miss, and so it goes on across a multitude of different disciplines in nations all around the world. But there’s one sport that seems to have an even greater allure to sibling rivalry than all others, as motorcycle racing tends to ooze brothers from the same mothers. It’s possibly down to the fact that cocking yours and your brothers’ legs over a field bike or minimoto is a darned sight cheaper than a season in F3, and once the racing bug bites, two-bike trailers or the requisite works Transit van are easier to come by than a 40ft articulated transporter.
