You'll be surprised. Sometimes he throws up a little sneak peek. Bet it's up by tomorrow this time. Video will probably be here at this time next month

Bet he’s dropped his camera somewhere…

Paging John!!

Have a good time Simon - I'll guarantee that you'll be quite shocked by the sheer spectacle at first. :wink: I’ve watched the TT most years off and on for about 30 years on TV, watched tons of on board stuff online, been to short circuit racing plenty of times but holy hell, that was unbelievable!!...

Just saw his bouncing dot

Nice one Allen

I have an old pair of specialized Rime that fit the bill except it’s Velcro and not laces… but they’ve changed it to laces and a dial, so may work for you?

There’s also a couple in the Bontrager range but remember the SSR being a popular shoe

It’s my Friday

So beer, pizza and then off to the Isle of Man tomorrow for a long weekend to watch the TT

Boyhood dream

Are we going to see a joint second place soon? Jenny and Zoe seem to be close

Looks like Kerry will get under 4 days

Allen has gone past 450KM mark

Going to be a few tight finishing spots for the top ten now.

Kerry has a massive lead over Jenny (who’s book - Jenny - is well worth reading btw)

Lead women also threatening the record

What is the ladies record?

Less than one hundred miles to go

One off special edition by Ribble

Allen has just past the 200 mile mark

More observations

Colin Baird (yellow flag) is flying along, penny just dropped as he had a very late start too from the mass start

Kerry Macphee has been remarkable, got a good lead over 2nd place

Just use the other hand…?

At my doctors, you can call up for free physio and swerve speaking to a doctor, probably quicker to get an appointment too

If my calculations (and memory!!) is correct, looks like Alex has lost about 20miles to seconds place. Think yesterday the lead was about 40miles for a long time but it’s shrunk to 20 or so

*obviously miles in this terrain isn’t the best indicator

Ah yes, I was reading the clock as time gone rather than the actual time

Always amazes me the pointy end, the speed the riders do!

116 miles under 7 1/2 hours

Lord Herefords Knob is brilliant!

The flask from Banana Industries came for the wifey, she’s pleased with it (which is handy as she was after mine). No more tepid water on a hot day :-bd The free three pairs of socks look decent to be fair, so a bit of a bargain there for me. The sunglasses are alright, not quite my normal style for...

Flask for a tenner https://www.bananaindustries.co.uk/products/copy-of-bottle-for-life-32oz-990ml Comes with three free pairs of socks too. Got the flask last month and using it for water, works well for that. No idea of how well it works for hot drinks. They’ve also got 15% of sunglasses and socks,...
