From the line taken by 1912 Senior TT winner Frank Applebee and his pursuer, it looks as if they were taking the pavement route to miss the bone-jarring potholes in the stretch of road leaving Parliament Square

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from BikeSport TT Race Pics, we are transported back in time to the thrilling world of motorcycle racing. The image captures the intense pursuit between Frank Applebee, the victorious 1912 Senior TT winner, and his determined pursuer on the streets of Scott. As our eyes wander through the frame, it becomes evident that these fearless riders have chosen a rather unconventional path. Instead of sticking to the worn-out road plagued with bone-jarring potholes, they opt for an audacious maneuver - taking to the pavement route adjacent to Parliament Square. The composition is truly remarkable; it not only showcases their exceptional riding skills but also reveals their strategic thinking amidst challenging conditions. By avoiding those treacherous potholes that could easily throw them off balance or damage their machines, Applebee and his rival demonstrate their ability to adapt swiftly and make split-second decisions. This photograph serves as a testament to the sheer determination and resourcefulness required in competitive racing. It encapsulates both risk-taking and calculated moves that can ultimately lead one towards victory or defeat. Beyond its historical significance within motorsport history, this picture invites us into a moment frozen in time where speed meets strategy on two wheels. It reminds us of how athletes like Frank Applebee pushed boundaries while navigating obstacles during races like no other – leaving an indelible mark on both sport enthusiasts and admirers alike.
