Presumably Anstey, Lougher, Archibald, Moody, Rutter and maybe Harris and names like that. Rutter is back on Hondas so I might support him again eh!

First fatality Sunday morning..
" The session was barely minutes old when it was marred by a fatal accident involving Frenchman Serge Le Moal, a forty-four years old father of three. He crashed at Braddan Bridge on his first lap; it is believed that his 125cc Honda seized"

Mad sunday at 10am last year I was doing 125mph going over the mountain on the 888 and guys were passing me like I was standing still, seriously crazy.

They close 1 direction of the road over the mountain so theres no oncoming traffic for the bikes, this means 3 wide through every corner at twice the national speed limit. It's no wonder theres always fatalities.

So many germans go now even the german police go over and have a presence there on their bikes.

I when in 1999,on my feet.Had a great time got given shit by locals at quater bridge for beening a sheep shagger kiwi.this happend because the three bikes that cocked the corner up were all kiwis.Its neat to stand leaning on a steel fence and have a bike go past at 150mph about 2-3 meters away.
