Biography

Terry won the first 750cc sidecar race (which was a two tier race for 500 machines and 750 machines) on a BSA passengered by John Flaxman in 1968.

Unfortunately he died of thrombosis later that year (aged 32). The machine on which he won is currently in the National Motorcycle Museum at Bickenhill, Birmingham.

I know this because my brother and myself raced the machine for several years during the 70''s and 80''s until we loaned it to the museum at the end of the 80''s.
