EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from BikeSport TT Race Pics, we are transported back to the thrilling world of motorcycle racing in the 1960s. The image captures a heart-stopping moment at Quarter Bridge during the 1966 Senior Manx Grand Prix, as John Findlay skillfully slides his Norton bike towards earth. But what caused this daring maneuver? A quick glance at that rear suspension unit reveals the answer - not enough steering lock. Despite this challenging setback, John's determination and skill were undeniable. Two years later, he would go on to achieve an extraordinary feat by securing a Junior/Senior MGP double victory in the prestigious 1968 Senior Manx Grand Prix. The intensity of this photograph is heightened by its monochromatic tones, which add a timeless quality to the scene. It serves as a powerful reminder of the bravery and passion exhibited by these racers who pushed themselves and their machines to their limits on dangerous tracks like those found on the Isle of Man. This print is not just about capturing a single moment; it encapsulates an era when motorcycle racing was raw, exhilarating, and unpredictable. It celebrates both John Findlay's remarkable achievements and pays homage to all those who participated in one of motorsport's most legendary events - without any commercial intentions but purely for enthusiasts seeking nostalgia through stunning imagery.
