LAUREL BANK, Isle of Man TT COURSE
LAUREL BANK, Isle of Man TT COURSE
Laurel Bank is from Rachael Clegg’s Milestones series in which every single image illustrates an event from the history of the Isle of Man TT Races.
The story:
In the early days of the Isle of Man TT motorcycle engines were constructed from iron and relied on air-cooling. Inevitably, after the sharp ascent through Glen Helen engines would often overheat but the Rex motorcycle company had a solution. Rex persuaded a lady living in a cottage near Laurel Bank to leave a pale of water outside for Rex riders to pour over their engines. This was a water-cooled engine in its crudest form.
