Congradulations firstly to Maria for finally
cracking that record held by Sandra since 1996.
But I still think Sandra was the best, as said in other postings for her achievements.
And yes it took some self belief and effort to
achieve what Maria has done, it does to show
how much harder Maria had to work to achieve it.
Now she has finally done it, faster times may come easier ! She'll porbably go faster at the MGP
providing she has the right bike.

I to admire Kate Parkinson, I remember her from
her first race days, she was a good rider on the
two stroker! We miss her, but I did speak with
her last year and she says she won't be back and
doesn' t follow the bikes anymore because she'd
be tempted ! Must let her know the record was beaten!
Well done Elle, great ride at the Billown Classic.
Also great effort from Anita Buxton what a great
TT and more to come ! Does to show she was
unfairly left out of the TT on big bike since the
last ride on 1999. Last recorded time on a 900
in 1999 at 102.68 mph, to over 107mph this year !
And where would she be now ? I recall Anita and
Maria's times at their last appearance at the TT
equal, now we'll never know who'll have made the
record first !? Such a shame. Go girl give it to
'em next TT !!
