Alex's Dad owned John George Motorcycles in I believe Glasgow and they were a BSA Triumph dealer.

Iain Tyrrell from "Tyrrell's Classic's" use a piece of rubber hose to his ear when he's adjusting carburettors. It keeps out other sounds from the enviroment.

Dave, you are like a very few people that however old you are "we know" who you are. Somewhere I have a photo of you on a Norton at Grebba Castle area with smoke pouring from that THING, /mid 70s keep safe, dont fall over and brake anything, just keep safe. .

I remember Percy Tait racing Slippery Sam a the North West 200 and he was on the pipe.
@richardt.42242 ай бұрын
I was at a race meeting and Percy was on Sam and in the open pits, Percy let me sit on Sam. Probably because we had met before because he tried to by my parents home by the A45 opposite what was then the Triumph Service station (cars), next to Windmill Farm, now a golf course!

Phil was looking frail there. I last saw him 2 years before he died signing books in Birmingham with his wife helping out. Had a conversation and he appreciated meeting someone who knew his achievements back in the 60s and 70s. One of the best riders GB ever had.

thanks to Karen for chatting with me. As an amateur using my phone camera, I did not check my SD card and part way through, the card was FULL ! had to take two! Karen is looking for sponsors and if you are inclined to help her and have some fun outings let her know in a comment here with your details.
