Watched them on iplayer. Been an interesting series. Good to hear from less familiar riders.

It is. I've always said that ITV 4 ought to pick one of these guys and girls and follow them through the TT. It wouldn't take much to put 2-5 minutes in the can for each days programme and would add some depth to their coverage.

That would be a good idea Hammerhead. It's good to get up and coming riders some screen time. Helps us get to know them and be more aware of unknowns. Gives a wider picture and greater depth to competition.

Some years ago there was a series accompanying the TV coverage called "Real TT Heroes" or something similar - very much along those lines. Mark Parrett and Wade Boyd were two of the riders they followed I recall.
