Darren Dixon
Darren Dixon is an English former professional motorcycle racer.[1]
Originally a sidecar racer, he scored his first win at Lydden Circuit in 1981 in the 'B' final. After an astounding rise through club racing finances meant his sidecar promise would be put on hold and he took to solo racing and quickly climbed the ranks to become a top national level solo racer. He won the British F1 Championship in 1988 on a Suzuki RG500 and made two 500cc Grand Prix appearances.[1][2] His greatest achievement was winning the Sidecar World Championship in 1995 and 1996.[3] Dixon later went on to manage a Superbike team.[4]Darren is the father of current British Superbike rider Jake Dixon.
