EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the thrilling atmosphere of the 1913 TT race at Braddan Bridge. The image captures a moment that encapsulates both ingenuity and disappointment in equal measure. Three legendary riders, George Herman on his Puch (138), George Brough on a borrowed Zenith (98), and Alister Kirk astride his Triumph (56), can be seen refueling their bikes during the race. However, what makes this particular scene intriguing is the story behind it. A Brough flat twin with an ABC engine was initially entered into the race but encountered engine troubles during practice sessions. Determined not to miss out on the action, George Brough made a bold decision - he borrowed a Zenith motorcycle from another rider and cleverly adorned it with a Brough sticker. Unfortunately for him, luck was not on his side as he retired from the race later on. Nevertheless, this snapshot immortalizes an audacious move by George Brough to keep himself in contention despite setbacks. The photo serves as a reminder of how passion for racing can drive individuals to think outside the box and push boundaries even in challenging circumstances. It also highlights that sometimes even great efforts may not yield desired results; however, they remain etched forever in history through photographs like these – capturing moments of triumphs and tribulations alike.
