Mervyn and the NORTH WEST team did a stering job not just today but all year round to put on one of the worlds best road races.

Today the best race was the 250, a very very emotional win
for Michael what courage ! I know in a different way that Michael
would have felt he needed to do this for his dad, just as I, nearly a
year ago only days after my Mum's terrible accident felt the need
to get out in the fresh air away from intensive care where Mum lay
so badly smashed up, I went to race a 10km run. Only Dad & i were
lucky Mum pulled through but it was still very tough at the time.

2nd favourite was Steve Plater winning the first 600 race what a BRAVE move four corners before the end of the race and boy he was trying, smoked them tyres !

And the last had to be the last race of the day again the 600, a
HAT-TRICK for STEVE PLATER, man to watch at the TT, HE WILL WIN A TT, I'm not saying when.

All in all a brilliant days racing best for some time, and a smoothly run
one shame Guy was the one to crash out, such bad luck that GUY!
But even worse that Robert loss his life in practise, I'm sure he was in spirit today.
And last of all what a super line up of classes, with some health & safety added with the separation of classes, it would encourage riders back!
