Omobono Tenni's 1937 TT shot
As you all know the legendary italian rider Omoboni Tenni won the 1937 Leightweight TT on a Guzzi 250cc. There is a famous shot that portrays him flat on the machine while riding "with a crazy abandon" on the TT course and that according to "The Motor Cycle" of those days was "the finest action photo of a racing motor cyclist". The photo was taken on the Mountain section of the TT course but I'm not sure about the exact location of the corner. I have uploaded the photo here: http://img430.imageshack.us/img430/961/tenni19376dw.jpg

Is someone of you able to determine the exact location? Was the photo taken during the race or during practices?

Thanks to all,

Marco - Italia
