Sorry, Mark.
I was trying to race and didn't get any pics at the time of those guys.
I saw Gillen and Senftleben both I believe in the Hannover, Germany "6" in
1951, but don't think I have a program.
I was in Germany riding amateur races for 9 months.
I do remember a story that went around about Senftleben.
In an earlier "6" he had just gotten two beautiful matching bikes and was
very meticulous and proud of them. Maybe the Gillotts?
Seems he was a neat freak and guys made some sport of that.
When he was off the track for his 3 hour sleep the guys got all kinds of
crazy paint and redecorated his bikes.
When he came back from his nap onto the track to resume writing, he almost
fainted.
He was so upset that he quit the race and left!
Guys got naughty during the long empty stadium early ours and started
pranking.
