EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous occasion in motorcycle racing history. The image captures the victorious duo of Len Parker and Ken Horstman, astride their powerful Douglas machine, as they celebrate their triumph at the last pre-war Sidecar TT race. The year is 1925, and tensions between manufacturers have reached a boiling point, ultimately leading to the demise of the Sidecar TT after this very event. As pressure from various companies intensified, it became increasingly difficult for organizers to maintain fair competition within this thrilling category. Parker and Horstman's victory stands as a testament to their exceptional skill and determination amidst such challenging circumstances. Their faces radiate with joy and pride as they bask in the glory of being crowned champions on that fateful day. Little did they know that it would be almost three decades before sidecars would grace the Isle of Man again for an official race. It wasn't until 1954 when the Sidecar TT was reintroduced on the Clypse Course – marking a long-awaited return for enthusiasts worldwide. This remarkable photograph serves as a poignant reminder of an era gone by; where passion met adversity head-on, leaving an indelible mark on motorcycling history. Let us cherish these brave pioneers who paved the way for future generations of sidecar racers while forever etching their names into legend - Len Parker, Ken Horstman, Douglas - forever remembered as victors in one of motorsport
