From 1946 up to 1959, the 250cc class in Britain was supported almost entirely by privately built Specials and Hybrids. This book recalls the men and machines involved, and traces their history and development, in what was clearly the most technically innovative class of Road Racing in the 1950s.

About Chris Pereira
Born in Sri Lanka Chris Pereira developed a passionate interest in motor cycle racing while still a young schoolboy. On emigrating to England in the early 1950s he went to work for racing dealer Arthur Taylor of Shipston-on-Stour. This provided the opportunity to attend race meetings in the Fifties and brought him into contact with many well know riders. He finally achieved his greatest ambition by riding in the Classic Manx GP in 1984 and was a regular competitor in Vintage and Classic racing events until 2002. He has written articles on racing history in several classic motorcycle magazines and in 2018 has released a new book Motorcycle Racing with the Continental Circus.
