Your efforts are very much appreciated over the years Mal. Look forward to catching up with you in the paddock.
Just to totally demoralise you Cargo, on 27th June, 1929, the Bicycle TT was won by a Manxman S.R. Taggart who set a new record for the course in 1 hour, 57 minutes and 36 secs Tongue
I first did it in my summer holidays in 1975 on a 3-speed Raleigh Hustler, we went round backwards but took most of the day, no rush then. My partner for the ride was Brian Christian, later known to many racers as the plaster man at Nobles Hospital for many years.
Amazingly I managed the complete lap without falling off! But on a later lap around the course by pushbike, one of my mates left his bike on the tram-lines at the Bungalow while he went in for a bottle of pop, and the tram ran over the wheel, rendering his "retirement" at The Bungalow, requesting picking-up smilie
In this country, it is customary to offer generous gratuities to taxi drivers
