EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from BikeSport TT Race Pics, we are transported back in time to witness the meticulous preparations for the first TT race after World War II. The year is 1920, and the iconic Glencrutchery startline is being readied for an exhilarating display of speed and skill. As our gaze falls upon the scene, it becomes evident that despite the passage of years, some things remain unchanged. The scoreboard stands proudly in its place, resembling its modern-day counterpart with a striking resemblance. However, one cannot help but notice a subtle difference - speeds recorded during this era were somewhat higher than what we witness today. The atmosphere surrounding Glencrutchery Road is palpable with anticipation as organizers work diligently to ensure every detail is perfect before unleashing these daring riders onto their adrenaline-fueled journey. It's a testament to human resilience and determination that even after such tumultuous times, the spirit of competition prevails. This snapshot not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of how far motorcycle racing has come since those early days. As we marvel at this vintage image, let us celebrate both tradition and progress while acknowledging the tireless efforts put forth by all those involved in making events like these possible throughout history.
