EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness the early years of "Rocket Ron" a legendary figure in motorcycle racing. While his son Leon currently dominates the race headlines, it is essential to acknowledge that it was father Ron Haslam who blazed a trail over three decades ago. Mounted on Mal Carter's powerful Pharaoh Yamaha during the 1978 Senior TT, Ron fearlessly navigates Governorss Bridge with unparalleled skill and determination. The intensity captured in this moment serves as a testament to his unwavering passion for speed and adrenaline. Ron Haslam's legacy extends far beyond this single event; he has left an indelible mark on the world of racing. His name became synonymous with excellence and daring maneuvers on two wheels. This image encapsulates not only his remarkable talent but also represents an era when motorcycle racing was at its most thrilling. As we gaze upon this vintage photograph, we can't help but feel a sense of nostalgia for those golden days of motorsport history. It reminds us that greatness often runs in families, as Leon Haslam now carries forward the family torch with equal fervor. This print from BikeSport TT Race Pics allows us to pay homage to Rocket Ron's extraordinary career while celebrating the enduring spirit of motorcycle racing that continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
