Reg Armstrong : ウィキペディア英語版 | Reg Armstrong
Reginald Armstrong (1 September 1928 – November 1979) was born in Liverpool, grew up in Dublin. He was a Grand Prix motorcycle road racer and raced for AJS, Velocette, Norton, NSU, and Gilera. He then became team manager for Honda's racing team in 1962 and 1963, and they won five world championships in that time. He was also in his lifetime an agent for NSU, Honda, and Opel. He competed in Grand Prix Motorcycle World Championships and at the Isle of Man TT, usually placing highly. He died in a road accident in 1979. ==Early days== He was born in Liverpool in 1926. His family returned to Dublin within a few years. Armstrong did not have a privileged background, but his father started a successful motor factoring business in Dublin and supported his early motorcycle racing as much as he could. A cousin, Harry Lindsay taught him to ride during the Emergency (as World War II was referred to in the Republic of Ireland) and both rode 16H Nortons. Both joined the Irish Defence Forces, with the petrol ration a prime consideration.
