A group of 3 or 4 bikes with heaps of noise and people calling out names but I must admit it was all too much to take in and appreciate in one hit. This situation continued until the end, I did see Ago and sort of got to hear the MV above all the others around him which was great. However we felt a little bit disappointed as virtually none of the riders came around by themselves so we could not appreciate the sight and sound individually.

Hi Don. I hope you enjoyed the sound of my howling BSA triple.
Here i am in the Parade Lap 2000, thanks to the late Allan Robinson MBE, who certainly had the gift of providing an interesting variety of machinery consisting of most makes and models which reflect the historical past of the TT.
