1978 was my first year on the scoreboards as a scout, I grew up on the IoM and spent all my younger years been taken to watch and knocking around the paddock @ TT/MGP - still have all my stickers from the happy times, these are just a few, 1984 was my first year involved in spannering/pit crew for a rider and there was a fab variety of 2-strokes everywhere - Proddy race, F2, Junior, Senior and the big 700/750 sidecars then 1990 I got my first go at The MGP then 1994 my first TT, all favourite years for different reasons - have missed only 1 TT in 48. Don't remember the Honda 6's but was I born day after Senior 67 and Mum n Dad were out watching all the races, Senior from Hillberry as Doc's told them not to travel too far on closed roads from the Jane Crookall Maternity wing. Born into it, wouldn't be without any of it.
