Few voices have shaped South African motoring quite like Roger McCleery's.
A six-time Western Province Motorcycle Champion in his youth, he went on to build the local Honda motorcycle business in the 1960s, then ran PR and marketing for Alfa Romeo and Nissan before founding Motoring Media Promotions in 1985. He has commented on motorsport on radio and at race circuits since 1969 and on television since 1976, served seventeen years on South Africa's Formula 1 Grand Prix committee, and represented the country on the FIM, bringing motorcycle and motocross Grands Prix to local soil between 1980 and 1993.
On Motoring Today, Roger brings that depth (and the address book that goes with it) to a weekly conversation covering motorsport, road cars, the global and local industry, and the heritage that built it all. From Kyalami's glory years to the latest launches, from F1 to bakkies, this is motoring through the eyes of the man who has seen, driven and called most of it.
