2007 Hennen - ian huntly - 26-08-2006
Are there any plans afoot to have Pat Hennen attend TT 2007 ??

i am all for that Ian but who pays the air fare etc? could be complicated who attends 2007 because the list is endless and who decides who is who.
Pat Hennen - ian huntly - 26-08-2006
He's American, he has a TT history of a lap record and he survived a horrific TT crash....
I agree pykey, that the list could be long and expensive but he, for one, must qualify as being a famous contributor to the TT story, and therefore deserves some kind of assistance to return to the Island..
It was just a suggestion, but the TT was more world recognised in those days, compared with now.

I agree Ian there was no bigger Pat Hennen fan than myself and surely but for his crash he could have probably gone on to win the world championshp? in fact a picture of Pat hangs proudly on my wall but what i was getting at were do you draw the line and who pays?
It is said - ian huntly - 27-08-2006
I believe that the IOM are trying to get ex-riders from all over the world to attend next year....
Surely the invited ones don't have to pay their own expenses !!!

Ok Ian i hope they invite Pat over like they did after his accident because he was really special around the TT.
