RE: Peter Hickman
Bill,
I think like the TT itself, these forums belong to the newer generation, so I will respectively, bow out of the forums at least.
I do not subscribe, or am comfortable with the 'faster, faster' mentality that now seems to be the requirement of competing at the TT.
The 'new' fans and supporters will take the TT and forums like this to places I dont want to go, but the new riders and there helpers better get a hurry on if they want the 'new' fans to be buying merchandise etc and be idolised in the same way as JMcG, MD, GM etc if what I whitnesed whilst watching the Senior from Gorselea was anything to go by.
On the last lap, after the top four riders had gone through, and in one case two large groups of people after JMcG went through, about 30% of the people watching from there packed up and made there way back to there vehicles. I say vehicles as there were about twice as many cars and vans in the feild where everyone was parked, than there were bikes.
I even started taking photos of the people leaving for some reason.
By the time the last rider had gone past us, there was about 10% of the people still on the bank.
Once again, I have gone off topic, but I assure you, it wont happen again.

If you want something bad enough, you'll find a way. If you don't, you'll find an excuse
