From October 1910, Victor Surridge had ridden as a trade representative for Rudge motor-cycles and held an hour motor-cycle record at Brooklands and fastest-lap.^[2] The accident to Victor Surridge occurred on the steep left-hand corner at Glen Helen and occurred when Victor Surridge attempted to pass another competitor, ran wide into a ditch and struck an earth-bank. An inquest decided that the death of Victor Surridge had probably been instantaneous and represented the first death of a competitor on the Isle of Man TT Mountain Course and the first death on the Island of a person in an automotive accident.^[3]
