| ah memories, know what oyu mean Keith, been three times and will return one day as it's a fabulous way to spend a week off work, sitting huddled behind some wall for hours waiting for the races to start, mist on the mountain, cold drizzle, everything you have is damp, only sheep and a copy of MCN for company....then the sun comes out and the racing starts and the beers flow and it's paradise, nothing like it...every biker should experience it.
Said before on here, but watching in the eitghties when Steve Hislop broke down right next to us and basically sat with us watching the racing with his bike up against a wall until recovery truck arrived...wish I'd known at the time he was going to become one of my favourite riders.
TV coverage has been excellent, we don't say it often, but well done to the TV boys.
