I agree. I know that opinions of Guy range all over the place, but one thing I have always respected about him is his attitude towards the bike. If he truly feels it is not ready, he will not sit it. I think he was willing to give it the benefit of the doubt with the new electronics package, but after Sunday, I do not think he trusts the bike for the course, and when you consider that while he is not seriously injured, he certainly has some bumps and bruises that will leave him less than 100 percent, I would say we may not see him in the Senior.

I think Guy is a great chap and I desperately wanted him to get his TT win, but I want him and all the riders, whom I respect immensely to grow grey hairs and tell stories to youngsters decades from now.

"Let me tell you about false neutrals, young'un."

He will have to make a hard decision this week.
