RE: It wasn't that funny, or was it?.
Hi Russ, Adam did the same thing at the 1998 Manx. The bulletin read " First off were juniors 9 Gordon Blackley and 93 Gary Rowe, 30 Dave Vale, 6 lightweight Brian Kneale. 6 senior Dean Martin, 12 lightweight Andy Jackson, 50 junior Adam Nowell, 1 lightweight Norman Gordon, 3 junior Alistair Howarth and 7 junior Chris Hook. It looked as if 5 senior Adam Woodhall had set a cracking time as he flashed across the line over 1 minute ahead of the next man - but it transpired that he had left the course at Barregarrow and rejoined the course at Brandywell. So the first rider to complete a full lap was Gordon Blackley at 107.42 mph"
Unfortunately it doesn't give a time or speed - would be interesting to know who was quicker Adam or Pete Beale, could start a new trend. Cheers
