I can say Rallyist keep is TDM 850 under 80mph on the way to Ellesmere Port for the meet
we had a good time not sunny but fine there was 4 TDMs there 3 TDM 850 and 1 TDM 900 and
just over 50 bikes from the Round Britain Rally there allso All the TDM 850 riders was off
the Carpe site I for got to ask the Rider of the TDM 900 if he was but he had come a long
way Devon I think.
Not long to the IOM trip
JD
Ride the Round Britain Rally this Summer.

If you do the TT taster and the G2G, you can go twice for less than the cost of one TT ferry... and arguably get more bike time in TT (as its practice week)

(99+103 v. 208)

worth a thought?

many thanks Dave

Just noted on NW TV tonight that the plans to do a world road racing series, culminating in TT, may actually get somewhere, and coincides with profile rasing by the tt3d movie, CLOSER TO THE EDGE. May come to nothing but you never know...

Cheers

Ermmmm.... Room for another Newbie?
I am supposed to be going to the Lakes with the XS1100 club that weekend but this seems a lot better ( only 3 going to the Lakes, nowt to do and they don't want me to take the TDM!!!)
I can tag on to anyone riding up to Liverpool from the Midlands but I need to know their Ferry times etc... to see if I can book the same crossing.
I snore like a pig (according to her indoors) so I will take my tent so I don't disturb you guys.!!! LOL!!!
Can you let me know ASAP please?
