He has passed through Cronk Ny Mona few seconds ago. He is actually 55. on the times.

Thanks ! 8)


- Westers - 05-06-2007

I was hiding as one of those guests whilst I waited for my membership to come through, but now I'm no longer a guest.

The "other" website can go play with itself as far as I'm concerned - it's just becoming a money making excercise over there and how convenient they had trouble with the forums during the race. A more cynical person would think that they didn't want the race progress to be posted as that means people don't have to subscribe to the radio/dashboard... Lol

Good work.


- Helena - 05-06-2007

Thanks Malcom for you great coverage, I am back in work today so this
was the only way I could follow Martin's race today, another 4th place is
not bad.

Helena.
