    Yeah I was marshalling at the Ginger and on the Saturday practice session they all went round, even the sidecars. The speed they do down Sulby straight has to be seen to be believed. We all think we've seen bikes going fast but until you've seen and heard a fully prepped race bike going 200mph+ on a narrow road and pulling the leaves off the trees you haven't lived (figuratively speaking obviously). Michael Dunlop being my fav as he gives it 110% all the time.

    I knew it'd be Ingleby! Seems like half of Teesside lives there these days :D

    I'm just over in Norton and I'm also on the Teesside bikers forum. Don't really get on there much though. Do you ever go to the Pit Stop?

    Ah haa!! Yes I think I've noticed the name on there before :D

    I've never actually made it over to the pit stop yet. I'll have to make a point of sorting that out.
