In your look back over eight decades of motorcycle sport at Cadwell Park 80th anniversary celebrations you seem to have missed the one major decade
I cannot see or read any mention of the 1960s in your article?
Surely this was a true classic decade, with the likes of Mike Hailwood, Phil Read, Bill Ivy and many other top riders racing at this circuit. They would be chased home by the top short circuit men of the day like John Cooper, Rod Gould, Dan Gould, Dan Shorey, Alan Barnett and others.
