How Can Geoff Duke Be Dead

How can Geoff Duke be Dead Going down to the bottom of Barregarrow Past the crossroads above the road dives down In my minds eye imagination drives me on Full throttle impetus now a projection through space Past the White Chapel a hundred and twenty miles an hour Wheels skimming and dancing barely touching the ground Skill and nerve enhanced playing with gravities pull Ultimate this a test of a man to do his best God bless the most famous TT rider Geoff Duke who died on the 1st May 2015 a lovely old man aged 92 I'd like to add him to list of the categories unlisted as - manly braveness and humility !
