So who is going to the races at the iom TT this year? A group of fans over there are working away really hard to get me over, man, it will be so humbling to be able to go into the Isle of Hospital and thank one and all personally for there efforts on me

And there was me thinking that my big mouth would have scared that fan base of well, haha, I guess they actually like my honesty

It is certainly a compliment and evidence of the type of person you are, Shaun. If someone is open, honest, good at what they do and generally a good sort with a sense of humour, they will be given a lot of leeway!

Unlike someone who may be opinionated and arrogant, yet also good at what they do, (like Shane Warne or Russell Crowe for example...).

Hope you do get to go back!

Cheers mate, Yea I do have my problems, but have always loved Honesty. It is such an honour to an old has been, for the crew to be doing this for me.

The other benefit for me, Is I will also spend 2 weeks with Ken From K- Tech suspension, doing some training work on suspension building, K-teck, are the very best suspension company in the UK, Ten Karta used there suspension parts, to win in the world Super Sport a couple of years ago, and most of the BSB grid use there gear.

If anyone's thinking of going I totally recommend it - as an experience it makes motogp, sbk etc. look pretty tame by comparison.
Shaun - maybe you could start a thread about the TT races - particulary with regard to how you dealt with the danger thing ? A good chance to be Honest (capital H).
