Colin if what you say is correct, I must add that I wondered if maybe the big teams had some influence in this decision.

It still defies belief it maybe and I say that reservedly, okay for the big team riders with teams of full time mechanics loking after their kit but the privateers and smaller outfits it is a different story.

With practice dramatically reduced a lot of peope must be under endless pressure and rushing around like mad to get everything done and mistakes are made and hings overlooked, seriously over te years there must have been thousands of faults found by the scruts whih riders while a bit miffed have been gratefull for.

Cannot ever remember any of the work teams lor riders like MV Benneli Norton MZ or the Japs ever of private sponsor ever objecting before so whats the crack this time.

So all the shouting about the importance of safety a rubbish useless TT course licence was all spin and C*** and the most important safety procedure of all gets flushed down the crapper
