Motorsport: Superbike Driver

This is Michael Hill of Taboo Motorsport. Michael rides a Honda RS 125cc bike in the British Superbike Championship, is about to turn 28, lives in North London, is blond, blue-eyed, single and has been voted the UK's "Best Gay Male Sports Personality" several years in a row. That's right, a professional MotorQueer athlete!

It has been written that Michael was one of the bright young stars of the motorbike racing circuit. He had two North-East titles under his belt by the age of 20 and finished 13th in his first appearance in the National Championship. In an article
published a few years ago, Micheal tells how he left racing in the midst of his coming out in 2001.

He returned to racing two years later, forming his own team under the Taboo Motorsport banner. In recent years he has reestablished himself at British Championship level and has managed to become a regular in the commentary circuit. He has even found his way onto British television as a commentator, had a spot on the popular Bravo docu-soap "Natural Born Racers" and was involved with the film "And Still I Rise".
