Info on photo ""H.-Hubacker-at-Olivers-Mount-Road-Races-York

Unread post by saluki1968 »

Can anyone provide any detail about the team in this photo? The photo as found on several sites on the web identifies it as "H.-Hubacker-at-Olivers-Mount-Road-Races-Yorkshire, 1969". Who is/was "H. Hubacker"? Who was his passenger? They both appear to be sporting the Swiss white cross on their helmets and the rig is certainly a BMW - with a radical fairing and sidecar design. It's such an interesting photo, I'd like to find out more about the team and their history, before starting on a drawing of them.

Here's the piece I did based on the phot - took a few artistic liberties, but nothing drastic
