Reg \"Reggie\" Barnett enjoyed a long and distinguished cycling career between 1965 and 1977, turning professional after. A six-time national sprint champion, he turned professional after competing for Great Britain in the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City. He went on to race domestically for teams including Holdsworth‑ Campagnolo, Falcon, TI‑Raleigh, and later his own Barnett‑Edwards‑Shimano squad.


In this candid interview, Reg chats to Chris Sidwells about racing in the 1960s and 70s.
