Yes, the "Isle of Man Today" article uses the same press release but John Watterson has taken it a bit further by expressing opinions.
What caught my eye was the frustration expressed by the long time guest house proprietor regrading the concentrated focus on the TT. It would seem logical to actually promote the MGP and try to extend the viability of Island businesses.
I could be wrong but the vibrations coming from people in control seem almost dismissive of the Manx and its competitors.
The 2007 TT will be great for everyone who can get there with what looks like plenty of chances to see some old bikes and riders up close.
My personal view is that the historic displays should be static and the addition, for this centenary year, of a professional classic race would be a safer alternative to parade laps.
