Huddersfield Classic Road Racer, Bill Swallow is once again entered to ride a 350cc Aermacchi entered by Mike Fawcett in this year’s Blackford’s Pre-TT Classic Road Races.

So far he has a total of 15 wins in these races, equal with Bob Heath and the veteran Yorkshireman will be endeavouring to go one better and move ahead of his long-retired rival with two outings on the Italian single-cylinder machine in the opening event of the meeting the Singles race and then in one of the closest contested events in the programme the 350 Junior race.

The retired school teacher first entered in the Pre-TT Classic Races in 1989, achieving his initial win in 1989 on a 350cc Aermacchi similar to the machine he will ride this year.
