Billy Ward, also known as Billy Biketruck, is a well recognized name in adventure motorcycle travel, synonymous with Charley Boorman - he’s Boorman’s right hand man for many things, but behind the scenes, there is the little known story about where Billy came from, and how he got to be so important for Boorman, and so involved in the motorcycle industry. But, this story is not for the squeamish, it involves castrating a lamb, a divorce, a quick print business card machine- all oiled down with a liberal application of Billy’s silver tongue and how all of that landed him at the Long Way Round headquarters and onward and upward.
