Wayne

When Aussie larrikin Wayne Gardner went halves on a second-hand dirt bike he kickstarted his motorcycle racing dreams. In 1987 he was crowned 500cc World Champion. Documentary Wayne covers the professional highs and lows of Gardner's racing career, and his relationship with first love Donna-Lee Kahlbetzer, his key supporter through a roller coaster ride of triumph, injury and setbacks.
