Stuck inside when I'd booked a day's holiday thanks to a cold and the snow so had a flick through some of my Dad's old shots he'd sent me - proper bikes, string-of-suasage helmets, early aero :D .

The old man stoking a tandem trike, a TT dead turn on the "five bar gate" involded a bit of muscling it around from the pilot (He didn't take this one obviously).
