Sixties Speed is an authoritative and vividly illustrated chronicle of the 1960s -- a thrilling decade that reshaped motorcycle Grand Prix racing. This period was a bridge between the tradition of four-stroke dominance and the incoming two-stroke revolution, where over fifty makes of motorcycle battled for supremacy across some of the world's most legendary circuits.

The book captures the intensity and innovation of this golden age with in-depth seasonal coverage, behind-the-scenes stories, technical charts, rider statistics, and stunning photography. From Honda's rise to the fierce rivalry between riders like Hailwood, Agostini, Read, and Ivy, Sixties Speed brings to life the machines, the men, and the moments that defined an era.

Featuring a foreword by former GP star Tommy Robb and the expert perspective of racer-turned-historian Chris Pereira, this is a must-have for any motorsport enthusiast.

Previously published as Motorcycle GP Racing in the 1960s.
