This time our dear friend survived - Anonymous - 08-06-2004
Whilst trying to come to terms with the death of our dear racing riend colin Breeze,my other half Glen (English) was riding aroud the mountain course tonite with some friends. One of then lost control (at low speed) at Kates Cottage. He is ALIVE and OK !!!!!! He has sprained his back, and his neck is in a brace but he is WALKING WOUNDED - HOORAY !!!!!! sorry for this self indulgent message, but when you've lost as many friends as we have on the IOM, the survival of one dear friend needs to be celebrated and thats what Im doing right now - so there !!!!!

I suppose that is all you can do, Jo. Our beloved sport which gives us such highs, also gives us heartbreaking lows. But there is nothing as wonderful as being involved in whatever capacity with those two wheel machines.

Good news and Glen's Manx - Anonymous - 09-06-2004
Glad to hear good news on the road-riding front; I am afraid that the suicidal riding of a minority of spectators may come round to haunt us with speed limits next year.
Must try and get the Steam Packet to put vallium in the tea!
Saw Glen's quarter-scale Manx Norton the other day, what a fantastic model, I will be running a picture and his press release later this week (or next, depending on when we can get the results book finished). No split-lap-times will be made available, but I hope to add a photo feature.

I will Ian, he was camping in the paddock, but he's on his way home now. He's racing at Cadwell 18/19 June in the CRMC National Championship (I think thats what its called !) Anyway whatever it is he's leading the 350cc and 500cc class's. I'll email you the other dates in the series as well so you can come and see us.
See ya soon Ian
