Let's make this birthday one to remember.

42 years old (Born on July 06, 1982)

Happy Birthday, John Laverty! Another lap around the sun completed faster than your quickest run on that Aprilia RSV4. You've conquered tracks and clinched championships—your Cup class victory in the British Superbike Championship still echoes louder than a Ducati roaring down Northwest 200.

Whether you're leaning into corners aboard a BMW S1000RR or cruising through life with style, you always keep us cheering (and occasionally holding our breath). May this year bring fewer pit stops and more podium finishes. Keep throttling forward—you’re not getting older; just fine-tuning for another legendary ride!

Enjoy your day at full throttle, champ!
