Susan Jenness Trophy - Malcolm - 23-12-2012 Congratulations to Debbie Barron recently named as the winner of the Susan Jenness Trophy for 2012. The trophy is awarded annually to the female competitor who, in the eyes of the Executive Committee of the TT Supporters’ Club, made the most meritorious performance during the TT meeting. Debbie became the first local, Isle of Man female TT sidecar driver – indeed, one of the few women to have piloted a three-wheeler outfit around the Mountain Course. After failing to qualify for Sidecar A, Debbie and her passenger, fellow Manxie, Robert Lunt, managed to make the requisite speed by Wednesday’s second race, again revealing the skill and determination shown in securing her Mountain Course licence during the previous few months. Although the crew came home in last – 33rd – position at a race average speed of 86.87mph, the Committee felt it a truly meritorious performance. The Susan Jenness Trophy is presented in memory of Susan who lost her life some years ago whilst marshalling a UK off-road event. Arrangements will be made for Susan’s husband, Mick, to present the trophy to Debbie Graham Bean Press Officer TT Supporters’ Club .
