check on, the vincent.com this bike was all so ridden by Manville Barrington in Ireland 1938 and won the the 100 mile event at Phoenix Park Dublin so said Phil Irving in his autobiography at Donnigton I was told was leading the race when the clutch started to slip I do not know the result, it would be very interesting to see the works build sheet on this machine the likes of Cliff Brown Pat Mc Iver Tommy Thomas, Jack Williams, and all so George Brown,

The pictures would have been full size but for some reason I can't use URL from Photobucket any more ? Keep getting invalid URL message ( but it's not )
