to me scrap the first 20 rider seeding , all starters start on qualy times , last year I think it was in one race we had about about 5 or 6 of the first 10 all in a heap scratching, the IoM is not a place for that sort of riding , that is why it is run as a time trial , we have a duty of care to make it as safe as we can , sorry if I sound like a parrot but safety is a big thing with me ,
