Sidecar TT 1956:  Scores of riders gathered at the 14 mile Clypse Course for a classic en-masse start, marking the beginning of a close-run sidecar race. During the event, the BMW team of Hillebrand, Schneider and Noll were challenged by the cream of Britian's charioteers for podium honors.

Senior TT 1956:  John Surtees, riding an MV Agusta, was the favorite to win his first Senior TT event in 1956 - a goal he managed after beating other riders on BMW, Norton and Matchless machines. Surtees also overcame the Moto-Guzzi team of Bill Lomas, Dickie Dale and Ken Kavanagh, who had hoped to offset the MV's superior power by attempting, unsuccessfully, to finish the race without a fuel stop!

Ulster Grand Prix 1956: The 7.4 mile Dundrod circuit of the Ulster Grand Prix in Belfast hosted a mix of works and private riders. This short documentary has highlights of the popular 350cc, 500cc and sidecar events.
