Well as a MGP and TT rider in the not to distant past. Like last week i think a lot of valid points have been made. Regarding pot hunting TT Riders id be lucky to gain a replica if i returned and if i had to wait 5 years to make my return to the MGP proper i think id give a miss as im nearly 50 now. I think if a rider who has contested the TT for as long as i have gets turned down on speed he should be let back in the Manx as long as he has not competed in the TT in the same year. As ive said before if i was lucky enough to be let come back to the Manx id forgo the TT for sure and not even put in an entry in next year. As ive heard wispers that they will no longer allow a change of Rider which is how i got to ride in TT 07 theirs one to think about.....all the best Irish Ago....
