The Sick Moon Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 hopefully he can manage to get around the course without falling off this time Err, but he came third in last year's Superbike race and second in last year's Senior race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbie Bobster Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 hopefully he can manage to get around the course without falling off this timeNotwithstanding the long-running debates about TT safety, economics, et al, it's not big nor clever to make snide comments about an individual suffering serious injuries.

The Sick Moon Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 I don't think it's unusual for riders to pay to get a competitive seat. I wouldn't support the DED paying anything towards anyone getting a ride. Can it be true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomTucker Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 if theres money kicking around why not get manx boys on decent bikes, Conor is a class act he his awesome round the TT course as last year proved. Dan is right up there at 130mph so its not as if he doesnt deserve the bike, im sure there has been some input from the DED but they have to develop the sport and part of that is having a local talent. Bradley Smith, Toseland, Cal Crutchlow all pretty much had the Tech3 rides because the of the UK market, same thing im my eyes. cant believe i just defended DED...........off for a shower.............shudder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey boy Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Conor & Dan have the rides they do due to merit and nothing else. It never ceases to amaze me the bollocks that one or two anti TT come up with to hide the real reasons for their objection to it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me anti tt Boll...s I would bet no one on this foroums has been involved as long at the tt mgp ,and spent as much .over the last 50 years ,if Dan and conner are that good they should get factory rides not paid for rides ,and the DED should not be paying for them .as they say if you can't afford to do it ,don't do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
