Description
A History of the Sidecar TT Races, 1923-2023 by Matthew Richardson celebrates a century of sidecar racing at the Isle of Man TT, highlighting technical innovation and the dominance of iconic teams.
The Isle of Man TT is one of the most historic motorsport events on the planet, with its 37 3/4 mile Mountain Course still in use today. The class of three-wheeled machines first appeared in 1923, and were an instant hit with spectators. Over the years, various manufacturers have supported their riders, including BMW, BSA, Yamaha, and Honda, each leaving their mark on the sport.
This book takes a look at the technical innovation and determination of all the competitors who have taken part in the sidecar TT over the past 100 years, from the early pioneers to the modern-day champions.
