    I was listening to the practice session when it happened.

    Terrible loss, my thoughts are with those left behind.

    Horrible Mixed weather conditions last night , So frustrating for all the teams/riders ...sounded very challenging from the comments made by the racers after their run out.

    I finish work today then head up to Liverpool late tomorrow night...dock at Douglas on Isle of Man Sat at 07:15.
    Can't wait.

    :D

    Good afternoon chaps.

    Had this morning off work washed and polished the S4 and Blade, both are now covered with Optimates looking after them, Spending the afternoon relaxing ahead of a comfy run up to Liverpool in the S60 later on.

    Dock in Douglas at 07:15 in the morning.
    Fellow TT Visitors, have a great time and stay frosty.

    Far Too many are stacking it over there!

    Back now and had a great time.
    A fair few blades on the camp site.
    But by far the most disgusting was the McGuinness one. Just why ?

    Too shy to approach any blade owners though.
    A fair amount of trips over the mountain too, but saw way too many crashes.
    Including a girl on an all black blade run out of road, an R1 messing with a BMW car then doing his best Connor Cummins impression.
    Some scary and downright dangerous riding over there.
    Had my pic taken with McGuinness (again), Cam Donald, and Josh Brookes.
    Will post some pics when I get a chance.
