Born and lived there ! Seen all the great riders come and unfortunately go over the years. Most of my viewing was done at Quarter Bridge , Braddan Bridge area. Also noted is the voice of the great Peter Kneale commentator for many years at the TT.
1975? It says produced in '77 in the description and in the credits? but it looks more like '74/5 with all the Commandos and not much Jap stuff on the road bike footage.
Nothings changed - but - everything's changed!!!!!!
Happy innocent times.
Innocent !!! You are Joking
That is mental, seems a lifetime ago.
Thanks.
I love the smell of 2 stroke in the morning . It smells like powerband!
