    Thumbs up Forge Formby & the Shuttleworth Snap

    Filmed at the 1935 Isle of Man TT Races, "No Limit" starred George Formby as George Shuttleworth, a northern lad convinced he can win the TT. He builds his own machine the Shuttleworth Snap to compete with the works teams. If you have never seen the film then shame on you specially as its available on dvd. Although for best experience go to the TT & watch it in a packed cinema, brilliant

    Spotted at the Northwich Thundersprint was Forge Formby a tribute to George Formby & No Limit, complete with replica bike.
