these are pictures of Englishwoman Beryl Swain the first woman to complete the Isle of Man TT in solo competition. she completed the 50cc race in 1962 on an Italian Itom motorcycle. however after this her International Racing License was revoked and she was not allowed to race again. didn't look good in those days to have a woman equal what a man might do. took another 10 years before women were allowed in International Competition once more.
