1955
Does anyone remember when Geoff Duke (Gilera) was reported to have cracked the "Magic Ton"....
Yes, that was 1955 !
Unfortunately the timekeepers made an error in conversion and it was not until 1957 that Bob Mac did the ton in an EIGHT LAP Senior..
Yes, it was EIGHT laps long in that year,
(only because the TT was 50 years old of course !)

So how many laps can you do in 2007 then ??

Any other memories of 1955 ?????????

Then there was Mike Hailwood (MV) in 1965, crashing at Sarahs Cottage and going on to win in awful weather conditions....

Any other memories related to years ending in "5" ?

I have one for 1975 but it is unprintable !!

We'd like to know them, folks !!!
