Great pic!

Very Cool

Good to see a 851 on the Isle

Chris

888 on the TT course at the Gooseneck, just above Ramsey.

I have to put up with this weather and the same old bit of tarmac 365 days a year! Messages of support and sympathy welcomed.

Cheers

Mr.R

Poor old you Tony, you have my deepest sympathies for your hard luck, in fact my heart's pumping purple piss for you at this very moment mate.
I wonder why Mike the op didn't pop in to hook up with the majority of 851/888's on the Island last year? He must have seen the 851/888.com banner outside your home in Glen Vine.
Hope to see you during the MGP/Classic TT later this year.

Here you go Steve, a motley collection of Ducati's finest and others! I think this year will be a bit sparse as the MGP Classic is becoming a better event particularly if you prefer biikes that are not exclusively Jap inline 4's. I'll get the banner put up again.

Spaggy has a party of 12 TT virgins coming over.

Cheers

Mr.R

Nice pic' Tony you're breaking my heart I wish I could come over in June for the TT, but I'm on "Dad" duty for 1/2 term this year.
How lucky are you to be able to take a pic' of your driveway with a genuine part of the TT course (Without a doubt the Greatest Motorcycle race track in the World IMO) in the background.
...and to be able too host a fine collection of bikes along with their enthusiastic owners, you're along with your wife "Top People"* and I know it's appreciated by all who are lucky enough to come along.
*Lolly has just exclaimed... "And Kids!"

Take care of Sarah, Archie and Scarlet, I look forward to seeing/meeting the new additions.

Here's another lucky man with his less fortunate bike on my driveway !

Every year I host a Senior Race day BBQ at my house - all visiting 851 and 888 owners welcome and friends on lesser machines!
Cheers

Was that the Guy Martin bike?

Mr.R

Yes Mick that's Guy's bike after the "Fireball" crash. 😯 ...and the same piece of track in the background.
No worries for future visitors though as Tony has built a "Guy Martin deflector" wall now, it's this wall that he nails the 851/888.com banner to now.
You can still see the repair in the tarmac on the road that Guy's bike had set alight outside Tony's driveway.

Yep, seen the banner! (see it every year!). Meant to call in but we were staying in Laxey this year.
Might stop by this year as we are camping not far from Glen Vine.
If you allow Yamaha 2 strokes!
