In this print from BikeSport TT Race Pics, we are transported back to the thrilling world of motorcycle racing in 1954. The image captures the iconic moment when Howard German, aboard his powerful Norton bike, approaches Bray Hill during the Senior Clubman TT race.

This small but crucial action highlights the meticulous attention to detail required by these daring racers as they push themselves and their machines to their limits.

Despite this setback, this photograph encapsulates both the triumphs and challenges faced by riders like Howard German during one of motorsport's most prestigious events. It serves as a reminder of their unwavering determination and passion for speed. As we gaze upon this vintage snapshot frozen in time, it allows us to appreciate not only the skill and bravery exhibited by these racers but also how far motorcycle racing has come since those early days.
