Perhaps. It’s true nonetheless. As boring as it is.

He’s here visiting relatives.

Don't tell IOM. LOL

Can’t understand why you think it’s clever to make a joke out of it tbh.

Pretty warm down there !! I can’t understand how it’s 30C as far north as Cheshire, and 17c here. Just not fair

Mrs Cheese is six days Covid+ , and to all intense and purposes has a cold. We have several friends and acquaintances who are currently positive also. None of them are ‘flat on their back’ The latest versions of covid don’t seem to be going to the lungs as badly, that’s helping a lot I imagine. strangely, I’ve not got it (yet). I mean, our tonsil hockey days are over, but we still share a bed. Would have expected to have been ill with it by now. Not complaining though.

Who actually writes this shit?

Julie Canipa posted this on Facebook a few weeks ago. I can't believe I'm actually writing this but after my 2 1/2 years absence from racing, I was finally looking forward to getting back in the chair along side Michael Russell in preparation for this years TT. Unfortunately it wasnt until I got back in the chair I realised that this isn't what I want to do anymore, my passion had gone. If your heart is not in this dangerous sport that you once loved so much then it's time to call it a day. I'm sorry that I let Michael down but he was very understanding of my decision. I hope that Michael can find another passenger as he's a really great guy! I would just like to say a " massive thank you" to everyone who has supported me throughout my racing career. I've loved every minute of it! Bye for now!

Thank you. First time I’ve cried for years.

Sitting at home listening to celebratory fireworks. Having spent a fair proportion of today involved (indirectly)with the families of those involved in two tragic sidecar crashes, I feel totally empty.

Don’t worry about the sea trials. If there’s one place that knows how to build ships it’s Korea.

You have friends ?

Yeah, you could be right, could be wrong. How would it affect the attractiveness of the event? Who knows.

38 miles x 6 laps? Can’t see them maintaining gaps for the duration. Plenty of ‘dog fights’ now and they’re all doing 130.

If they reduced the power / speed, you’d just bunch more riders together. Probably more dangerous.
