About KH
Keith Huewen is a former British Champion and Grand Prix motorcycle racer. Since 1991 Keith has been a le
ading motorcycle commentator and sports TV presenter. He also specialises in American motorsport. Keith can be seen and heard on television and radio throughout the racing season, and has been known to pop up in the most unusual of places given some spare time! Keith is a dedicated and long serving member on the board of directors of Riders for Health, a charity founded by motorcyle grand prix 'people' and now headed by Her Royal Highness Princess Anne.
" Keith Huewen is and was a motorcyclist before anything else. By accident he found out he could also be a motorcycle racer, and a good one at that. Good enough to come second in his second British Grand Prix. There was natural ability there obviously, but Keith was one of those sportsmen whose real strength was his self-belief and a bloody minded will to win rather than a God-given talent. He was the sort of competitor you would not want to find yourself side-by-side with going into the last corner. He was also clever enough to realise there would have to be a time when he couldn’t earn a living as a sportsman. He started commentating on a few outside broadcasts with Anglia TV, and when satellite television arrived in the UK he was able to lever himself into Sky’s coverage of GPs and then front their wildly successful World Superbike Championship programmes. Then, with his usual fearlessness, he was able to transfer his skills to presenting other motorsports "
