It has not gone unnoticed, I agree with a weight limit.
17 stone minimum.

Ha ha John, I was going to type something similar about the minimum age limit not decimating the field but rather felt that was a bit of a cheek given the average age of a TT scrutineer....

I don't want to be boring but shouldn't we be looking for the youngest competitor. I take on board Kew's comment but can remember when 50 was the cut off for an international licence ( which some fibbed about dare I say ) however if I am to be able to go to the TT in the future to see sidecars we need new crews . This will not happen if we look backwards .
There is much talk of a TT series worldwide . Is anyone from our fraternity chasing this down ?
