How long is it that I told you all that it ain't sport any more, it's Show Business with the emphasis on BUSINESS.

Face it, we'll make the Centenary and that'll be it.

In effect, two MGPs a year?

Don't laugh, give it some thought. In my view, the riders and organisers of the Manx are nearer to the spirit of the TT than the TT has been for quite a few years now.
