Glad to hear you survived - The Hangar Lane Gyratory is not an attractive cycling venue under any circumstances.
If you look at 1950's continental road racing photos (as I do), it's noticeable that many pros were reluctant to adopt cotterless (ali) cranks which I believe had existed even before 1939. Perhaps they knew something?
