1956 Triumph T100R Trophies |
By 1957 Don Vesco had already been riding bikes and winning trophies for three and a half years. His first cycle was a Triumph, then a show BSA bike, then another Triumph and finally his beloved 1956 T100R Truimph which won him over 30 trophies in 1957. Back in the day trophies were awarded directly at the track right after the race. Don, not wanting to forget any of his victories, wrote on the bottom of each trophy or on a scrap of paper with the details of the event. Thanks Don!
