Sidecars and their crews are always smartly turned out at the Blackford’s Pre-TT Classic Road Races and a credit to all the ‘team’ that are involved with each outf
it.
After an absence of two years, the premier classic races on the Isle of Man make a welcome return to the Colas Billown Course on Friday, Saturday and Monday 27th, 28th & 30th May 2022 and in particular the Sidecar Teams will have to add some additional ‘spit and polish’ to their machines, drivers and passengers as a long-time supporter of the Pre-TT Classic Races and the Sidecar races has presented the race organisers, Southern 100 Racing with two especially designed silver salvas, which will be awarded to the ‘Best Turned Out Sidecar and Crew’, along with the compulsory bubbly.
Long time visitor and Classic enthusiast Bill Barrowcliff has for some years generously designed and had trophies hand made for various classes and special awards to be presented at the Blackford Financial Services Pre-TT Classic Road Races and once again one of the twenty sidecar entries will be taking home a unique award from the 2022 races.
Club Chairman and Race Secretary, George Peach said: ‘The Club are once again overwhelmed by Bill’s kindness in donating these special silver salvas, to be presented to one of the sidecar crews at this year’s Pre-TT Classic Races.
‘Bill has been very generous to the races for nearly a decade now and his kindness is much appreciated not only by us, and everyone involved with the races, but especially those who have received Bills special awards.’
