John 'Pat' Patrick

Unread post by Steve Parker »

Does anybody on here have any photos, memories, stories or anything relating to my uncle, John Patrick.
He won the Southern 100 Sidecar championship in 1967 and is from the Corby area.
He was the first man to win a solo and a sidecar race at the Southern 100. Thanks in anticipation.

Your uncle John was a very very hard, but fair rider. You should be proud of him.

Thanks so much for that Dick. I haven't seen him for years now, but he's still pottering about in Corby. I'll pass the comments on and let him know he's not forgotten. :D

Steve I have found out that he started racing solos in 1955 on a 248 Velocette and at one time held the race record at Cadwell Park on the old 1.25 mile circuit. He won the solo Southern 100 on the Velo in 1960. If you want any more info including sidecar results etc send me a pm and will gladly send you what I have found out.
