I have had some lovely messages thanking me for the TT newcomers weekends and the support given to all TT competitors who want to come across and do some laps.
While I do the organising and nag the bejasus out of everyone about how important it is to do those laps with a neutral driver and a mentor....yak yak... you've heard it all before...lololol... there are others who do so much more
Donna... who puts up most of the visitors in her house, or overspills them into her bro's flat. Thank you, Donna... you are truly the hostess with the mostest :notworthy: !
Pete...... who travels endless miles over the Mountain in any one of his fleet of TT-mobiles, dodging trams and testing brakes with countless hapless passengers/drivers quivering in the back. I think he believes it hardens them, or that , if they can survive that, they will be fine at the TT... thank you SO much, Pete. Without your moral support, too, I would be flagging. :notworthy:
Marc Fagan, who lends us his minibus, and doesn't question who might have driven it... :notworthy:
Pud and Lizzie, our flawless drivers, who patiently circulate the greatest course in the world all weekend, stopping and starting as required, for the paltry reward of a lunch.. :notworthy:
Keith Mackay, marshal and John Ridout Technical Official, who give invaluable advice and info :notworthy: .
The TT Motorsport Team... Paul, Sophie and Bruce, without whom we would not have had the use of the Grandstand, the lovely lunch on Saturday, and all the other help, both practical and emotional! :notworthy:
...and finally, all the drivers, passengers and long suffering family members who come across in scary little planes, horribly bouncy boats, from all directions, in the best and worst of weather...well... without you, what would be the point...come back soon.. [wub.gif] [wub.gif]
:witch: :cat4 .. Helen and Cleo miss you!

Helen puts in a lot of time for these guys and I am sure every single one of them will use the invaluable knowladge they gained that weekend.

Well done Helen, and thanks to the Motorsports team for helping with odds and ends, they don't get a lot of credit, mostly people barating them for a tough job, but they take it on the chin and carry on. SO credit where credit is due. Paul Philips and his team, thanks mate.

But most of all to Helen, the support they get for their first TT started here and with the great work you and your team does.

Lisa that is often the case with established riders too. Never go into 'downtown' Douglas with KEW, you may never get back. I found him once in a side street in Douglas where I lived at the time and he was asking for directions.

What was worse, he was sober.
