The good news is, Harry is recovering well and is reportedly sitting upright and is quite chatty. Harry is in Surgical 5 at the Mount Hospital and would love for anyone to drop in and visit. Harry rode competitively on a Compy Matchless and socially, with his late wife Eleanor on an Ariel with Dusting sidecar. The pair ‘manned’ the gates at Bucks Hill Scrambles in it halcyon days.
Harry performed very well at the Borderline Speedway when it first opened, “winning a few bob to help out the income in those days” he said. Harry will be missed at Mac Park this weekend. Keep on keeping on Harry!
