His articles, on simple maintenance and safety, were first published in REVS Motorcycle News (paper) in 1968; followed for the next 50 years by test reports of new models, classic motorcycles, race reports, and a series of humorous columns published in 18 of Australia's top selling motorcycle magazines.
From 1948 he spent over twenty years in the trade; his first book, Motorcycling in Australia, published by McMillan in
1976. Lester is also a noted race commentator, often featuring as an expert motorcycle compere on Torque, a 1970s
National TV Motoring programme.
His books, Vintage Morris: Tall Tales but True from a Lifetime in Motorcycling, volumes 1 and 2, are just that, memoirs of his 'many-and-various' - often hilarious - experiences in the fascinating motorcycle industry.view less
