THE ISLE OF MAN YEARS – 1969
Quote from Scooter World: "With Dot Hasler as Scooter Queen and Peter Chapman as Scooter King (both on 90ss Vespa's) the Isle of Man Scooter Rally was as pleasant as it was surprising"

Said Colin Morgan (Torbay Tigers): No, I didn’t do very well but I finished in practically everything including the sand races. This is my first Manx. I've been over the full week. On Sunday I got 3,000 penalties. That must be something like a record. I broke a throttle cable and was 45 miinutes late, but I finished. In the hill climb I didn’t do much-it was very wet but I enjoyed the Druidale. Some sheep got in my way too. My scooter is a Lambretta 150 but it's bored out to 175.
The tow bar broke and I was overtaken by my own trailer which then overturned in front of me!!
