    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!

    So, will it be on Sky then?
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    I think he's got a bloody good chance - if determination means anything, yes he will!

    Being frustrated is disagreeable.

    But the real disasters in life begin when you get what you want.

    " 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.
