EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from BikeSport TT Race Pics, we are transported back to the year 1970 when a daring massed-start practice experiment took place. The image captures the moment just two miles into the race at Snugborough, where chaos ensued as a multiple pile-up occurred. This ill-fated experiment involved setting off ten riders together for practice, but its disastrous outcome ensured it would never be repeated. Amongst the brave souls caught in this unfortunate event were Bill Fulton (number 63), John Pepper (number 109), Ross Hannan (number 93), Derek Filler (number 74), and Bil Smith (number 17). These determined individuals had embarked on what was meant to be a routine training session for the upcoming TT race. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of both the risks these riders faced and their unwavering dedication to their craft. It freezes an intense moment in time, capturing expressions of shock and determination etched upon their faces. While this particular experiment may have ended in disaster, it stands as a testament to the constant pursuit of improvement within motorsport.
