more grim news and with the classic tt and the ugp still to come. the problem is that you have to ride short circuit style or you are not competitive. gone are the days when you could win riding at 90 % in road racing. too many riders are overriding in road racing now and not taking into account the dangers. please no more.

Bad times. Thoughts with the Cowton family.
He was sat at the next table to us in Cromore Halt on sat night after his NW win. Really nice friendly lad. So sad.
