From what I have read there is a rise up to Ballaspur. Also the inside of the left hander has been boarded so that riders do not contact the rock wall where Richard Quayle came to grief. In fact the famous clip of Richard's accident does show his machine appear with the front wheel off the ground, however this could be due to contacting the wall.
Les Graham seemed to be fond of jumping, there are some famous shots of him taking off and landing the MV4 on the Clady circuit in the Ulster GP 1952. There is also a shot of him off the ground on a left hander with stone wall beside him in the 1952 Senior TT. If I can find it I will post it.
Rest in Peace Don Simons 1942 - 2012
