EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from BikeSport TT Race Pics, we are transported back to the thrilling world of motorcycle racing in 1949. The focus of the image is Artie Bell, a skilled rider on his Norton bike, who had just completed an impressive fourth-place finish in the Senior TT race that year. As our eyes wander through the frame, we notice three significant figures standing behind and beside Artie. Gilbert Smith stands tall behind his shoulder, exuding pride for Bell's achievement. Joe Craig can be seen just behind Artie's front wheel, perhaps offering words of encouragement or sharing in the excitement of the moment. And right in front is Rex McCandless, renowned as the designer of Fetherbed frames – a revolutionary innovation that greatly improved motorcycle performance. The camaraderie among these men is palpable; their shared passion for motorcycles and racing shines through their expressions. It is evident that they form a tight-knit community united by their love for speed and adrenaline. This print serves as a powerful reminder of both the individual triumphs achieved by riders like Artie Bell and also highlights how teamwork and collaboration play crucial roles within this exhilarating sport. It captures a timeless moment frozen in history when these remarkable individuals came together to celebrate one another's accomplishments on two wheels.
