William Dunlop and Guy Martin

[Roger]

This will be interesting. Michael Dunlop will be riding Yamaha this year. William and Guy on the Tyco BMWs. Wish I could be at some of these races.

Aye, you and me both. As an ex-pat Ulsterman, I can say the road racing is the thing I miss most.

“It goes like shit off a shovel...." G. Martin

No higher praise for a sport bike than that...

John McGuinness will be on a Honda Racing Fireblade. Damn, that is so freaking great. Getting all excited here and can't even watch it. I really wish they would cover these races on TV here in North America. The races don't even rate a mention.

Guy Martin on a Triumph

I'm not sure but I think that Guy is only on a Triumph for the Isle of Man TT. He is supposed to be riding a Smiths Racing Daytona 675. I don't quite understand but for different classes he might be riding for different teams. I'm a wee bit confused.

Mega!

I think he's given up on ever winning a TT.

Ya. Your face is not supposed to be a shop rag.

I think he's given up on ever winning a TT.

He has indicated that but it looks like he will take another run at the TT on the BMW.

Well, seriously, enjoy the event. I hope you get a good spot and the weather is all round good. Still three weeks away. Take some pictures if you can and send a couple our way. Have fun

Damn, I'm jealous!

Last time I was at the Northwest 200 was back in '79. I volunteered as a track worker. Damn that was a bad weekend.
