Thanks to the Ray and Carr families for making me so welcome.. owe you loads of tea! Hope to see you all in the off season... short break Cargo and Sandy? Accomodation available at Coven Garden House!
Thanks also to all the people who rallied round to help out as marshals, including, of course, Cargo himself, and Sandy who stepped into the breach at the very last minute when I lost my sole remaining marshal. This was when Cargo was going out, and she must have been thinking of him, but she was a super marshal, and stayed right to the bitter end, even when he didn't come round.
Thanks to Bill Snelling for a wonderful exhibition which has raised an amazing amount for the helicopter fund.
Thanks to the boys from the beer tent and friends! They raised about £1000 for the marshals... including bullying and harrassing us all at the presentation!
Finally, thanks to all the riders. You are ALL stars.
Less than 50 weeks to the next Manx................
