It was a fanTAZtic day. Thanks to all the helpers as it couldn't be done without you.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the great biker community attitude there.

As for the computer program, it was the first time we used it at the Hill climb so we did have a few Technichal issues and I apologise for those. I will be working on getting those fixed up.

A huge thank you to Mrs Kendog for running the computer program for me so I could enter

, to Numberone for helping Mrs Kendog with the timing and to Kendog (Mr) for all his technical help with some issues that he sorted out. I had a fanTAZtic day thanks to your help and support.

I would like to also thank Dina and Garry for letting me stay at their's.

Deano, what can I say all the work he puts in behind the seans on these events is amazing and on top of that he wins 2 classes. Thank you and well done mate.

Thanks to you all for coming along and making it the event it was. I am very proud to be involved and to know so many of you.

If any of you have any suggestions for the timing program please PM me and I will see what I can do. I am going to be running through things with the Kendogs to see how we can make things better but all suggestions welcome.

Thanks

Taz

Mate - all I can say is that many people doing a little can achieve great things.

This event and the sprints have really taken off over the past two years.

The computer timing programme developed by Kitty O'Shea's owner and yourself, the sponsors for getting behind the event, and all the people that help out on the day. It's just great to be a part of it.

I really enjoyed the comraderie that developed between the racers over the two days - I'm getting a bit soppy now (ghey) but I ride a Honda so it's ok.

A perfect open door to suggest more people get involved in the organising of said event.

Many minds will make light work of expanding the whole thing, to a televised even! (Even in second spot I would have gotten some coverage).
