from exiting L-R-L-R out of Close e Volley? to side street on left (1 bend) 0.97 miles

from exiting L-R-L-R out of Close e Volley? to hard right at A17 Weir Sulby (2 bends) 1.24 miles

In comparison

If anyone finds a complete clutch that flew off a G45 Matchless about ten years ago at Classic Manx practice on the run through to Glentrammon, I will be happy to return to its owner.
I also lost a pair of collets when a rear suspension unit broke along the Cronk y Voddy in '78 Manx practice - still finished the lap on the other one AND got a qualifying time lap in! Wonder whether the marshals along there found them.

I lost my sanity at Sarah's cottage in '92... any clues where it went?
Losing a clutch takes some doing Smile I've had an ignition rotor off an ADM go past my ear at Castle Coombe. They're heavy little things! It rolled for miles Big Grin
