Andrew My profile photo is of the 1972 Isle of Man Rally Day Trial. Nick Banks (then of Nickspeed Scooters, Liverpool) driving & me in the chair. The scooter is a Vespa 90ss chassis with a complete 180SS engine slotted in. The sidecar is right-hand mounted and was home-made - the effect was to make a mid-engined very stable but small outfit. The forks were cut, pushed forward & re-welded to increase the trail. This photo is taken on the rough track that joins the TT course just by The Gooseneck. We finised 1st sidecar and 4th overall!
