Re: The Isle of Man 2015 Thread
was chatting to one of the PBM mechanics last night , Hutchy's bike was/is just a collection of spare parts from the BSB team , I was very surprised and rate his achievements here this past week even higher than I did before .

His recovery from injuries alone makes it an incredible achievement.

I wish I had those type of spare parts lying around !Jack wrote:was chatting to one of the PBM mechanics last night , Hutchy's bike was/is just a collection of spare parts from the BSB team , I was very surprised and rate his achievements here this past week even higher than I did before .
Hutchy is on a par the many of the TT greats IMO. I love how he doesn't brag, shout how good he is and just gets on with it. I tend to like those kind of people and respect them more.

Re: The Isle of Man 2015 Thread
Well I am no longer a TT virgin , I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here , despite the problems I've encountered there have also been lots of positives , Bill achieved all the goals he had set for himself and finished 35th in the senior , with 3 120+mph laps out of the 4 ( the other was the pit stop lap ) , the weather has been pretty good , the racing has been awesome , the island is beautiful , I have met some proper nice people and done some serious networking in the paddock , got a few good contacts in BSB now and talked with the head man from Bimota UK . All in all quite a successful trip . Learnt a few things which should make any future trips here easier for me , I hope to come back better prepared and without the problems Ive encountered this time .

I really missed my biannual trip to the races this year due to various reasons. I do need to go again, maybe the classic next year.Jack wrote:Back home, glad to be but also a little sad at having to leave the island , really had a fantastic time , got lots of work to do and stuff to sort out now , starting with some sleep .
It does tend to pull you back Jack, I'm sure you'll be a regular now
