he was a dubliner. i think he finished runner up in the world championships 5 times or something, possibly runner up in the first ever 500cc championship behind graham or frith in 350? that photograph is in tt100 and tt century. i (think) it was gilera he rode for after norton. he was a champion marksman also and killed in a car crash in ireland sometime in the late 50s. i'll find out as much as i can later and confirm or change anything thats wrong from the stuff above, because im not 100% sure about it
