Margaret worked for the Bank of Scotland’s Treasury Department in Scotland’s capital, arranging the carnets for the ISDT teams to allow machines to be taken overseas. She also was a support crew member at several ISDT events for the Scottish ACU teams.
She was also Trials Secretary of the Melville MCC for many years as well as being a member of the RAC/ACU Rider Training Scheme held in Edinburgh in the 1960s and 70s.
Sad to hear of Margaret’s passing.when Alex Smith and my self where involved in the Scottish. Margaret was a good observer.and was not swayed by top riders inquiring about what they lost in her section. she would say you will see results tonight. RIP. JOCK
So sorry to hear of Margaret’s death. She was such an enthusiastic person to be around, always joining in the fun. We in the Melville were very lucky to have all the contribution she made to the Club’s activities. My condolences to her family. Tommy Milton
