Keith Bryen had assembled his photos, scanned by himself, into folders of the various years he raced motorcycles.
As mentioned he was in the IOM in 1954 for the TT races, he comments...
..." I had prospects of a good season ahead of me for 1954 but as the result of a stupid mistake in the first lap of practice at the Ulster GP I broke my shoulder and collarbone. So I decided I would return home, as the season would be virtually be finished by the time I would be fit to race again."
It would be 1956 before he returned to Europe again.
These following photos are from the early part of that 1954 season and in the IOM.
