Legend, not forgotten.
My dad was a huge fan of Tom’s and was at the race where Tom met his fate. The following year at the TTs dad got me a Tom Herron pendant and chain with an impression of Tom racing on the front and his autograph on the back. I still have it and treasure it to this day.
loved the Ulster GP, 75 was my 1st year, I was 13, walked home to Ballysillan, I was at NW when Tom sadly passed, I have never went back, R.I.P Tom.
Legend. I was at NW that terrible day
Saddens me to see this. I remember the day he was killed. Worse though is when you look at how many people went to the UGP 50 years ago when we only had 3 tv channels. Even look at the size of the grid! Evolution has not been good for many things.
