Just a quick note to thank everyone for their help and support over the last two weeks. This TT has certainly been a TT of extreme highs and lows.

The highs - without doubt, the incredible speeds and achievements by some of the most skilful motorcyclists in the world. Hutchy, MD, McG, Dean Harrison, Bruce, James Hillier, Conor, Ivan, Hicky, the General............. the list goes on and on, nowadays they need to be doing 130+ to be in with a shout - incredible.

The weather - fabulous. When was the last time we had weather like that, a lot of riders got 30+ laps practice during the first week.

The low's - not many words needed for this but obviously our thoughts and condolences go to the families and friends of Dwight, Shoey, Ian Bell and Andy Soar - tragic tragic circumstances and extremely sad we have lost these gallant and brave men from our TT family.

But to all the Officials, Marshals and anyone else who contributes to the TT who read this, my thanks and gratitude to everyone for your invaluable input throughout the last fortnight. The TT goes from strength to strength, and without your support, we would be hard pushed to get if off the ground................. thank you to all and I look forward to working with you during the Festival of Motorcycling in 8 weeks time and then of course TT 2017 - 349 days to go guys............
