My little tribute to Geoff Duke:

statue


I s'pose this is really a suggestion to the IOM Goverment / TT organizing committee.

I believe that Geoff Dukes memory should be remembered in a appropriate manner. Can I suggest that the "authorities" with some haste, consider something in the manner of a Bronze statue be commisioned of Geoff that perhaps has a perminent position in the TT grandstand area. I dont know if it is possible to get such a thing designed and cast before the TT, but I would certainly think that it is possible to have it finished by the Classic / Manx. I also feel that this is something that the Isle of Man goverment should pay for. Geoff over the years through his racing and othere activities bought a lot of people over to the IOM TT and the authorities should appreciate and recognize this.

Perhaps somebody from the "authorities" could reply to this post and say that they have seen it and perhaps doing something about it.

Geoff Dukes memory should and must be remembered in a appropriate manner
