EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from BikeSport TT Race Pics, we are transported back to the year 1953, where the legendary John Surtees showcases his exceptional riding skills on a Norton bike. However, what makes this particular image even more intriguing is that Surtees was also contracted to ride Dr Joe Ehrlich's 125 EMC at the prestigious TT race. As we delve deeper into the details of this snapshot, we find ourselves at Rhencullen, just two miles away from where an unfortunate incident occurred. Approaching Ballaugh with immense speed and precision, tragedy struck as the forks of Surtees' motorcycle broke unexpectedly. The consequences were severe - not only did it shatter his dreams of triumphing in that momentous race but it also resulted in a broken wrist for the talented rider. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of both triumph and adversity in motorsport history. It captures a fleeting moment frozen in time when Surtees pushed himself to new limits while testing out the capabilities of Dr Joe Ehrlich's 125 EMC during practice sessions for the ultra lightweight category. Let us remember John Surtees not only for his remarkable achievements but also for his resilience and determination despite facing setbacks along his illustrious career path. This picture immortalizes an unforgettable chapter in racing history and pays homage to one of its greatest icons – John Surtees – who left an indelible mark on two-wheeled racing forever.
