RE: John Surtees receives CBE in UK New Year Honours List
Thoroughly deserved. Should be a Knighthood when you consider the way they were handed out to Bradley Wiggins and Chris Hoy. I don't understand how they can become Knights DURING their career. I have nothing against these fine sportspeople, (and there are others), I just don't "get" what the powers that be are up to.
Anyway, that's a rare shot of Surtees at the Ulster. Coming out of Leathemstown Bridge?  I think that's Cecil Sandford in front of him on a Moto Guzzi. 1955?
