    Description

    Pictured: Curb, stone wall, tree, gatepost, house and garden typify the dangers of racing at the TT. Agostini, top left is about to become Italy's first Junior-Senior double winner. Reigning 500cc champion Agostini, top right, appears confident he will retain that title, and add to it the 350 championship. His TT double win brings him a step closer. Siegfried Schauzu and passenger, Horst Schneider, left center, push sidecar race speed over 91 mph during their second successive TT victory...
    ...They're tied for 1st in the title hunt. Cycle World Publisher Joe Parkhurst, center right, views production racing from midway up Bray Hill. On this section the fastest machines attain speeds well in excess of 140 mph. Little Bill Ivy is the first rider to lap the Island at over 100 mph on a 125 machine, lower photo. After damaging his foot on Lap 2, Ivy finished 2nd to his Yamaha teammate, Phil Read. For the second consecutive year, Klaus Enders and passenger Horst Schneider find themselves  pushing after enjoying a comfortable lead.
