The Stalker making a switch to sidecars! Interesting move

That's a strange move. I'm guessing he's been offered a decent amount of cash.

Did you see Maria Costelloe on Twitter begging for someone to pay her to do the same? I've never liked that woman.

With the relative safety of a sidecar i wonder if he will be tempted to do the TT now! That would draw the crowds.

Maria Costello is only about promoting herself,, still would want to try and catch her on a bike though!

Has he said who is going in the sidecar with him?

I've got a mate who races side cars. He used to be the passenger but got sick of being crashed so became the rider.

Brave, blind or drunk. One of the three will do.

Odd move, but his time in the top bsb teams has gone, purely because of his age because he is still very fast when on the right bike and mood.

Sidecar riders seem to carry on into their 50s so I hope he does well. The TT is a natural progression I guess. Balls of steel needed.

Great guy too, chatted to him many times at shows and races. Good luck.

A lad at work raced in the sidecars at the TT. Won best newcomer or something. His Dad is the driver. You would never think to see this lad that he did that on his time off. He looks like walter off the Beano
