Quiz today – Who is this rider on the estart TRS – A Neil Sturgeon Boxing Day pic.
I posted this pic of the British ISDT Team mainly to show that back in the day everybody wore “Barbour” suits – The Team were all mounted on Triumphs that year. I still had my suit, when I came to Canada 60 years ago, but I have no idea what happened to it. – Later We Imported and wore the Red & yellow TT Leather suit, which were popular at that time. ( I used the belt from that jacket as a tornique when I made that imfamous walk out of the bush in 1979)
Below is another excellent Neil Sturgeon Boxing Day pic – showing some of the scenery in the UK – Yes Sunshine!!! We don’t know who the Beta rider is.
A reminder to all our friends out there, that since we had the Computer gremlins hit us again a short time ago, we seem to have lost all our email contacts, therefore we can only respond to people who email us, then we have them on file. – Please pass the word.
