Freddy Frith, 1934 Model 30


-SG- Freddie Frith needs no introduction as a leading works Norton team member in the second half of the thirties. Prior to that, he had won the 1935 Junior MGP, finished second in the '35 Senior, and put up good performances in the MGPs of 1930, 1932,1933 and 1934. I am not that keen on action photos for the site, as they show too little of the actual machine details and this 1934 shot is no exception. But it epitomises Frith's tidy riding style and certainly shows a man in a hurry!
