And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms.

He also has smaller bikes he races on Roads (where there are multiple classes and riders race multiple classes) and in the US when he races at Daytona where they run smaller bikes for the 200 that he races under PHR - Peter Hickman Racing. He's a funny bloke and holds the lap record at the Isle Of Man TT at 136.3+mph.
