TT Course to be used for 24-hour bike endurance test - Malcolm - 01-10-2008

Motorcycle Mechanics did this in 1981? if I remember correctly.
One of the bikes used was a Pantah 600, I can't remember the others.
Mick Grant was one of the riders and I think Charlie Williams was involved as well.
I might have to have a dig around in the loft and see if I can find the mag.

I can't believe that anyone would call a 24 hour trip an endurance test.
I've done more than that going on holiday with the wife on the back.
