ISLE OF MANN TT

[taffscrivs]

The Worlds greatest motorcycle races are here again. Practice this week, racing proper starts on Saturday.
If the weather holds fine expect lap records to be shattered, a lot of talented riders at this years event, a shame that McGuiness and Anstey are not competing but it seems that Hutchy is fit to ride.
Anyone going this year? If so have a great time and stay safe.

Just returned from the Classic TT/ Manx Grand Prix races, what a brilliant 10 days' racing!
John McGuinness' return to racing resulted in an emphatic win on the 500cc Paton, which shows that his enforced lay off of almost 2 years through injury has not dented his exceptional talents on a motorbike one little bit.
The rest of the racing was amazing, especially the Newcomers race which showcased the emerging talent of some of the best young roadracers around the Mountain Course.
Dangerous? Maybe, but riders and fans would have it no other way, many thanks to the residents, organisers and army of marshalls who make racing on beautiful Mona's Isle such a brilliant spectacle.
Long may it continue!
