Bikesport Photo Archives
I have finally managed to get round to detailing the
FoTTofinders pages (work gets in the way!) and have set up a page for each
decade after WW11. In addition to the races, we have photographs of most riders
who have participated in the Classic laps.

FoTTofinders Bikesport Photo Archives is a photograph cataloguing service, combining commercial collections and private picture galleries within a single database.
Andreas Racing - Jurby Road & Airfield. We have started to catalogue the Jurby meetings, a fair selection from 1969 to date.
Southern 100 - most years from 1955 to date
Please note: We try our best to answer every query as quickly as we possibly can, but, with the size and scope of the unaccessioned collections, we cannot always be as successful or as quick as some people would like. We currently have about 200,000 images catalogued; there are still over half a million to be logged on the computer. (as well as a day job!)
We have access to over a quarter of a million images of TT racing; from 1907 when the first TT races were held on the 15.8 mile St. John's-Kirk Michael-Peel circuit, through to TT '2000.
In addition, we have pictures from most years of the Manx Grand Prix
(1923 to date), the Southern 100 (1955 to date), as well as hundreds of images from the Ulster Grand Prix between the years 1950 to 1959.

FoTTofinders is an on-going service; no catalogues will be published, but we will try and find photographs of any riders. There are, currently, over 200,000 images fully catalogued by year; rider; machine; location; riding number.
The FoTTofinders database is being added to daily, and we are touch with other Bikesport photographers, who
also have their collections on databases.
