Summary

MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: International Motocross. DESCRIPTION: Our pictures show preparations for the British Motocross Grand Prix, sponsored by the Daily Herald. Among competitors were Johnny Giles, Don Rickman, and two Swedes, Rolf Tibblin and Sten Lundin. And then, they’re away, with a total of 36 miles to go. Don Rickman held the lead for quite a time, but no-one could touch Rolf Tibblin. He won both races and the championship. SHOTLIST: MS man puts tyre on. MS Johnny Giles with bike. MCU Don Rickman.
