    Irish Road Racing, Cookstown, Tandragee, NW 200, TT

    Wonderful to see bikes racing down narrow old world roads and through villages!

    I can really identify with Irish weather! We're having the same here in Michigan!

      These are the lead ins to the IOM. Got a mate over there at the moment. They were at the NW200 last week and he says he was in shorts so it wasn't too bad there.He's in the IOM at present preparing for practise week. Looking after Jay Lawrence on a supersport 1000.
      Jay of course rode a Katana in the Classic TT last year.

            During the week it was nice, but Saturday was fairly awful with 9C-10C temps, wind and rain. I didn't envy the riders having to go out in those conditions at all. It was miserable enough just standing in a field watching.

                          Wish I was there! I went to the Classic TT/Manx GP last year, what a place! Truly Mecca for motorcyclists. Even without the racing it was better than any bike show. Rare and unique bikes everywhere!
