Quality practice is not having to practice against or arround machines of many classes as it used to be at the TT. Gone are the days when a rider would go out and do a practice lap on a SB, come in jump on a proddy then 600, 400,250.125 and even a single. Yes agreed practice sessions have been reduced by 4 mornings but dont we now get a practice session after each race ???.
As to fitness yes a rider has to be fit but not totally fooked by doing to much practice in one session as used to be. A rider should arrive at the TT as fit as possible and in good shape mentally to fine tune himself for the races ahead. A rider that has to do to much in a short time in my opinion is a danger to himself and others. The way the racing is now is just about right. (thats going to upset the strokers)
