And so begins the slow slog back to the States. The trip home always gives me good time to reflect on the past two weeks and all the amazing people that welcomed me in and made the trip so special. First off is Janice Thompson and the whole Thompson family. Without them it’d be just another holiday. And thanks to The People's Bike, Mark and Sam and everyone involved for letting us be a part of TT fortnight with them. Special thanks to our great friend Charlotte Moran and her family for sharing not only great photos but also the wonderful behind the scenes stories that make the TT so special. And even though our visit was short, always great to see Tony and Lisa our pals from Bonneville who now make the IOM their home. And of course Steve Rial and family for making me feel right at home in the paddock, the best reporting team at the TT! And even though she doesn’t like being mentioned, I couldn’t do this Facebook thing without Miss TT USA taking up all the slack whilst I’m running around. And last but not least, Dave Sargent and Dave The Sidecar Dog for always keeping a chair open every night at the Station. Good times and even better friends are the icing on the cake for two magical weeks on the Isle of Man. 🇮🇲
Until next time, Slane lhiu…
