[QUOTE="david bowen, post: 77428, member: 799"] Denis Minett came to South Australia pre war ( I think 1938) to do same racing on a Norton. same time Stanley Woods was here on a works Velo, and the works DKW team were here as well, Denis was doing some test work for a local dealer I think on a Zundapp road bike he had a accident with a local bus and broke his leg or hip from this he had a limp. Many years later 1960, Ted Davis tells this story, Ted after Vincents worked for Borg Warners, he was on a visit to Melbourne Australia standing out side of a Bank waiting for to open Ted spotted this guy with a limp coming up the road Ted said is that you Denis and it was they had not meet since Denis left Vincent 1951 [/QUOTE]
