I think the lack of Practice is a huge problem for the TT and Manx alike I feel that with the ever increasing speeds that more and more practice is needed for riders to learn and familiarize themselves with what they are doing , and in my book there is no prizes for fastest newcomer , as fastest newcomer is stacking the odds up for making a big mistake that they may not survive , one Mr Brooks up on the kerb three times , very lucky man , but lady luck has a habit of turning her back when you need her ,, women for you
