 A real master piece! But a short lived one - this 1.5 cwt birthday cake was gobbled up at the 59 Club last Saturday. The cake a faithful replica of Brands, was baked by Arthur Keen, of Cranbrook Kent. Fiddly work, the icing was left to well - known cake artist "Jiminy", of the Crimony Company, Twickenham. Complete down to the pits, railings and controll tower (there's even "oil" on the track!) the cake was 48in long, 28in wide and 12in deep.

 Sheene chalks up a 350 win on a Bultaco at Brands in July 1969. He used to bunk off school to watch midweek practice sessions at the Kent circuit when he was a kid.

 It all started here. Sheene and racer Gordon Keith, winner of the 1964 Manx Lightweight Grand Prix, pictured by Nick Nicholls at a Brands Hatch practice day on 17 February 1968 - two weeks before Sheene made his race debut at the Kent circuit on Saturday 2 March. Barry, 17, was there that February day to gently run in the engines of two Bultacos his father Frank had tuned for the coming season. Barry returned the following week to complete the job and went so well he ended up racing them. At the time, Frank was the famous Sheene because of his tuning talent and it was the bikes not the young rider, that made the picture newsworthy. (You tube)

 Barry began messing about on trials bikes after buying a Triumph Tiger Cub from future British sidecar champion Mick Boddice when they were both about 12 or 13 years old. The Cub was replaced by a Bultaco Sherpa when Barry began entering Kent club trials. This shot of him messing about at Snetterton on 13 October 1968 was taken shortly after he got back to Britain after acting as GP mechanic that season for Lewis 'Del Boy' Young. (You tube)

 A few weeks after his Daytona crash, Sheene bought himself this second-hand Rolls-Royce to cheer himself up. The famous personalised Barry Sheene racing plate followed. This picture was taken at the Match Races at Brands in April 1975. American rider Dave Aldana is the back seat passenger and the driver is Merv Wright, who moved from America to Britain to manage the Texaco Heron Team Suzuki squad the following year. If the picture had been taken a few minutes and few miles down the road it would have captured Aldana introducing the drivers of Kent to the American practice of mooning.
