The
Quiet Before the Storm
Carl Fogarty is on the
Island promoting his new book, he was interviewed by Jo
Pack this afternoon on Radio TT. The interview can be
seen on the Manx Radio website.
A cruise liner has docked in
Douglas Bay and a couple of tall ships are anchored in
Port Erin Bay
The paddock was a relaxed
place with last minute tinkering before tomorrow's big
day. John Holden was captured making his seating
position more aerodynamic and James Hillier was just
enjoying the atmosphere.
Dean Harrison and Peter Hickman had queues of people wanting pictures and autographs, they obliged all with friendly smiles and comments.
Des Connor shattered the
peace when he cracked up his MV Augusta outside of the
Hailwood Centre, much to the delight of all around.
The forecast is good for
tomorrow and the only question is will lap and race
records be broken again? Will the sidecar record break
the 120 mph barrier and the Superbike break into the 135
mph average lap speed in the blue riband Senior TT?
It doesn't really matter so
long as the races are good and more importantly safe.
