Weather has been a bit unpredictable of late, fingers crossed it’s decent for them.

It'll be interesting seeing how the TT riders adapt from getting dialled in for the Mountain course to now adjusting for Knockhill,it must take a lot of recalibrating!

Yep, looking forward to this and WSB, has been ages since the last ones.
In terms of entertainment value for me, BSB is up there with the NW / Ulster and TT, followed by WSB, then MGP.

This popped up in my YT suggestions yesterday



Oh, and anyone else think that Duncan has an uncanny resemblance to what a certain other Scottie who frequents this forum would have looked like a (very :D ) long time ago, or is it just me?

I'd have gone if I hadn't bought tickets for the Highland Show next weekend.

I used to go to most club weekends and the national championship meetings back in the late 80's and probably last time i popped in was about 20 years ago when i thought it had developed a lot but just saw a drone shot from high level and its unrecognizable from the circuit i ran on in my late teens :shock:

The entire facility has grown and much to the better :thumbup:

I thought I noticed a slight shower. :think:
It worked well for local lad Scott Swann. Maybe now his da can shave off that Captain Birdseye beard in honour of Scott's first win in the Superstock. If he takes after his da,there'll be plenty more to come. 8-)
