◾ As much as we love bikes, sometimes things just go wrong and last month we lost a couple of great guys to our chosen passion. Billy Redmayne, a Manx soldier and road racer, sadly passed away at Oliver’s mount during the Spring Cup meeting. As if that wasn’t cruel enough we also lost Mark Sears, a top lad who worked for Dunlop’s motorsport department for decades. Michael Czysz also lost his battle with cancer. All lived and breathed bikes and racing, and will be sorely missed by us all – RIP fellas…
