a Parc Ferme, is where the bike AND the rider are gated for the designated time after the race. Paddock stands can be brought in, but NOTHING must be touched on the bike.
Usually all just stand about nattering till time out is given
They had us in the 2003 Proddy 1000 TT, they wheeled my bike away from Parc Ferme, yes it was a 600 that had just finished 25th, caught in the act and excluded from the results.
