We were just visiting and unfortunately my wife couldnt get the time off for the TT. We were there the week previous to it. I did however get to ride an FZ1 (Fazer) around the course trying to keep up to it's owner on an MVAugusta

 

Ballacraine's real name is Nige. He bought a Scura and owns a Hinckley Triumph with ray gun pipes. He posts on here occasionally and both he and Juan (MV owner) also post on Visordown if anyone ever puts up a motorcyle thread Gettting very rare these days.

 

Glad to hear no speed limit imposed out of the towns there!!! WE WILL BE BACK!!

Hello!

 

Yes, I am still around. Pleased to hear you will return, Bill. Hopefully you will have more time next visit.

 

Interesting about Paul Dedman having an MGS01......I'll have to go up & take a skeet at it. That reminds me, he STILL hasn't sent out that resevoir cap.......Good excuse to go up & see him.

 

I'm around and about, Cliffy,....but I don't think we have met yet. Family commitments mean that I don't get to ride out anywhere near as often as I used to.

 

Nige.
