A Little Bit Foggy
Back in 1996, Loaded asked Superbike legend Carl Fogarty a thing or two about life and bikes.
A few more world titles, I’m a Celebrity crown and an MBE later, we asked him the very same questions- without letting him look back.
Oh Foggy, how you’ve aged…

Oasis. Brilliant. I really like them. Oasis

Anything. I live for food. I eat all day long. I live on nervous energy. When I give up racing I’ll turn into a right fat little git. (Swerved that prediction). English roast dinner.
