    Michael Dunlop's been on fire this week but can't help but think if it hadn't been for Gaz Johnson's injury he'd have had more of a run for his money in Wednesday's race. Johnson's Triumph was running so sweet and sounded wonderful in the first Supersport race.

    If you haven't booked to get your bike on a ferry for next year's TT forget it. Boats full signs went up last week for next year's TT. I'm fancying next year's Classic TT/MGP and maybe a trip across to Ireland for the NW200.

    Couldn't do the TT without a bike. I'd be at a loose end on Mad Sunday. :D

    no point going on the bike anymore,for me anyway,speed limits have ruined the riding and more to the point we've always got a beer in our hand while we are there.
    the manx is the time to go with the bike,far less hectic..

    Went to a conference at the Nurburgring last year. 3 of us in a Beetle hire car "accidentally" ended up on the circuit - it looked like some thing off "you've been framed" or a Carry On film :biggrin:
