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 !
