MGP programmes are GO! - Anonymous - 31-07-2003
Manx G P programmes were on sale in many Island outlets this morning. I got mine at 7.30am in Bray Hill filling station.
Must say I've never known them on sale this early ever before--16 days before first practice session.
Other side of the coin, in 1974 they didnt appear until the Tuesday evening, owing to some sort of strike. Very frustrating. Anybody remember that?

1974 was the first year I did the Manx, Barry, and I do seem to recall there was some sort of problem. Have you done the "who's who" again? and who's starting with who, or is that secret? LOL

It's no secret Ammo because the programmes are on sale. As you are no 99, you start with no 100 Clive Harrison on a 398 Honda.
Yes I compiled the Who's Who again and Im very happy with it. But whoever did the final publishing of it needs to learn how to spell "Lisburn". They spelt it "Lisbourn". Not my mistake!!!!!!!!
Just for your info--and I KNOW you want to know-- other 125 riders near you are 92 Terry Crane, 96 Roger Jones and 105 Eleanor Forrest. Better get your skates on with her 30 secs behind you!! There are only 9 125's in the U/Lwt compared to over 60 400's.

I'll wait untill signing on to find out who my starting partners are.
But from that moment on I'll be trying to put them behind me.
LOL
