If I was a girl doing the Manx, I wouldn't want to be featured in a list of girls who are riding. I'd just get out there and do it.

Male or female, it's the most satisfying feeling to be successful on the TT Course.

Don't ever remember Kate Parkinson reminding anyone she was a girl. She just got on with it and let her results speak for themselves. She was brilliant on a 250. Where is she now.........?
