This documentary film reflects on the short life of Brian Steenson from his primary school days in Killyleagh through his time at Down High School to reading Engineering at Queens University, Belfast.
Highlights from his motorcycle racing career are woven through his personal life including his long association with his childhood sweetheart Irene, who he first met at Down High when he was only 15 years old.
The programme is illustrated with many unseen pictures, archive film, dramatic re-enactments, memorabilia and cartoons covering his races and life outside the track. This is a human story told by those who knew Brian best, including his teacher, girlfriend, fellow pupils, university students, fellow racers and fans.
