After a 6 year layoff (1996 Senior on a CBR600) I shall be revisiting
the Manx in a riding role this year. A mere two years worth of
restoration and engineering has provided me with a Seeley Weslake 500
for the Senior Classic so watch out for no 74! It'll be the red
noisy one wobbling round at the back with a fat bloke on it.

Although I've had a few short circuit outings to shake down the bike
my only other real race was at Schleiz and you can read about it on
www.realroadracing.com under the 'Schleiz' news item link.

Good luck to everyone else over at the Manx this year and hope to
catch up with some of you.

All the best
