Maury (or Maurice ?) brother of Terry. Both rode for Oxford in the 50's.

 

 

There's was another speedway brother - Teddy! Great guys in the Hackney area. When Ray Terry crashed and wrecked my bike at Eastbourne in 1955, they and their dad 'Pop' responded by giving me various bits and pieces to rebuild it and refused any form of payment. Photographer Alf Weedon was a close friend of the family.

I know this is an old post but I just stumbled across this from Google. Maury Courtnell is my grandad!

 

He's 82 this year, still a mechanic, still beating us all at snooker and still scuba diving!

 

Be great if anybody had some old pictures or info from back in his racing days that I could show to him?
