I'm really sad to hear that Andy Laidlow has retired, at least for the moment. I don't know if Patrick will be racing with someone else. I was so looking forward to being their TT laundrymaid again, too!
Their gorgeous truck is for sale... see http://www.steveenglish.com... and if I win the Lottery, it's mine... mind you, if I win the Lottery, he might be needing it again.
With Jack, Sam and new baby Katie, it must be a wrench to leave every time, so I can see why he's going, but, oh, boy will the sidecar world miss him.
Thanks for all the fun, Andy, and enjoy your time with Kirsten and your lovely family.
