My TT 2012.

[Gert Meulman]

My this years little story started on monday practiceweek, left home at 6 in the morning, two and a half hours drive up to Schiphol Amsterdam to take the plane to Southampton, two hours wait there for my next flight to Manchester, then another hour wait to fly and enter the magical rock, arrived around half four, was picked up by Colin's wife and son, after picking up Colin's bus I quickly drove up to my homestay in Douglas to drop my stuff, left me just time to drive up to Sulby to be at the bridge...was there last year, it's a wonderful place, you hear the bikes screaming towards you over the straight, braking hard, before they go on the gas again just in front of you, my last years lucky winning shot was taking there and it was one of Guy, this year the first bike which showed up in front of me was Guy again, we were back, happy days...

Great, I was waiting for this. I love how you tell your story through pictures Gert.

...thanks Joe, next man around the corner was Hutchy, which was great, just so great to see the man back in the saddle on the Mountain Course, the man is just an absolute hero...

HI Gert.

Was wondering if you were going to do one of these threads this year.

Alan.

[Gert Meulman]

...thanks Alan, I will give it a go then, Simon Fulton on his Honda 1000 cc 3legs.com Superbike, Simon wasn't happy how things went for him at the TT this year, think he had a lot of problems with the bike...
