Just letting you all know I’m ok, parted company with the bike at the 27th milestone at 130mph.
Back in the paddock now and having a brew!
And yes my glasses are wonky! Thanks to the Marshalls at 27th for making me a cup
of tea and then scouring the side of the mountain for my glasses!

What is the most critical thing to pack for 2 weeks of road racing at the Manx Grand Prix 🔧🏍️🇮🇲?
Starting to get everything ready and spare Tyres, clutch, chains, bearings, extra fuel, teddy bear, all these pale in comparison of the importance of what has been acquired.
The item that defines the outcome fortnight has now been purchased and packed safely ready for a hammering over the next fortnight! ☕️

Giving back to the sport I love.
I’m still at Aberdare Park Road Races but I have swapped the leathers for some orange HI-Vis.
Sadly, it’s just too close to the Manx Grand Prix for me to justify putting an entry in.
Sun is shining and biscuits are in full flow!

Nearly there now, the screen on the Honda Cb350 K4 was wobbling around like a jelly on a plate above 90mph and I couldn’t see through it. 🪼
So I spent the morning making a new fairing bracket that does just the job and decided to leave myself a message on it too, just incase I forget 😜.
So close until we are released from the holding area and create the sound of thunder through the Villages and towns of the Isle of Man! 🇮🇲

All set up at the Clifford Arms Classic Bike Show. We’ll be here all day, so please come down and say hi.
I’ve left the bikes exactly as they left the pre TT circuit a fortnight ago, with Manx flies and dirt and all!
Pop down for a brew (or beer) or two, a bacon sandwich, and come see some lovely bikes alongside these pair.
All in aid of the Air Ambulance!

The infamous view from the back of the Manannan. We will soon be back on the rock and get chance to burn some more fuel and melt some rubber!
