I marshalled on the TT course for the frist time last year it was for the MGP newcommers race. The whole experience was throughly rewarding and I would recommend it to anyone.

Also as a MGP competitor I have attended the marshalls supper on the middle Sunday of MGP this also is a rewarding experience and more competitors should attended. It's a wonderful way to say thank you to the marshalls (and a cheap meal for a pennyless racer)

I can only hope that this is not the begining of a flood of marshalls quiting and that those who have decided to walk can be persuaded to return. Motorcycle road racing cannot survive without marshalls they are all selfless volunteers who spend two weeks "working" for little or no reward and people should remember that.

I for one will be at my post again this year even if it is only for one race day.
