Morning folk, as always i’ve been a bit slack on the blog front but i suppose i’ve got a bit of an excuse this time, running out of electric in Kirmington is a common thing but not for this long, sorry.
Right, I never mentioned but I had a bit of an off while in the Isle of Man doing the TT races last week, nowt too serious, I’m nearly mended now. This bit of an accident has caused a massive load of get well cards, I mean massive, and i couldn’t be more grateful. I reckon I’ve had a 1000 odd emails all wishing me well, as well as 150 odd cards. As well as the mega emails and cards I’ve had allsorts of gifts, stuff like, books, lego, itunes vouchers, enough chocolate and fruit to feed the five thousand, meccano kit, tea bags, money, bike models, teapots, the list goes on, but thanks a million for all the effort that you all put in, it really is appreciated.
Having not been at work for a week has put a fair bit of strain on my mum , mr +mrs lancaster as well as the farmers daughter, but none of them have told me to piss off yet, so ta very much, oh and a big thanks as well to all the staff at nobles at hospital in the isle of man as well as all the marshalls at the place where I crashed for putting up with me. It’ll be right next week, I’m off back to work, I’m not sure how you can find the will to live watching day time telly, so whether it kills me or not im off back to work.
Cheers.
Oh i, southern 100 is in a few weeks, thats the goal.

RANT START>
stopped by the book store…ya know. just checking out the scene and what not.
pretty weather…pretty girls, the usual.
and started browsing PB June issue and guess what I see.
Guy Martin
and guess what else I see….Jorge Lorenzo
Guess who’s cooler? Guy Martin ofcourse..why you ask.
cause he’s just down like that..i mean, with bike jacket and backpack and trainers and jeans with grease on it…and just a normal bloke. Who’s freakin fast as hell and down to earth.
and Mr Lorenzo is wearing designer coat, shoes, jeans and a scarf ?
a freakin Scarf??? I had to look three more times to make sure…
are you freakin KIDDING ME!
and The other day I saw him suckin on a lollipop.
Don’t need no flippin Scarf on a dude..ok. Its summer…its not even cold!!!!
and that’s the reason I didn’t pickup the June issue of PB.
<RANT END
but July Issue is gonna be a rocker.
Just been looking at your piccie of the Britten, I remember them racing here. Reckon you could build one while you’re on the mend!
All the best
Hey guy get well soon i came from australia to see you enjoyed the tt and sseing you race but atleast your still with us mate last race before you crashed i saw you pushing and pushing
get well soon guy
BUCKMASTER !!! WHO ???
Guy, dont change for any one but yourself. your fans follow you for who you are and for what YOU decide . You have brought road racing back to life for a lot of people. You bring us all a lot of enjoyment.
It’s bloody gud to have you back, I can’t say anymore without loosing my man pride and flowing water.
Just incase you forgot I did your pit board for my 50th birthday treat at the gooseneck last year, a day I and my bros will never forget.

C’mon Guy! Hope to see you at the southern
Great to hear you’re on the mend, Guy! You and Conor both got off pretty lightly considering what could’ve happened. Can’t believe you’re looking to do the Southern; you’re a warrior! Best of luck for that. Oh, and ignore anything Simon Buckmaster says; as far as I’m concerned, he’s the one who’s behaved unprofessionally by slating you in public the way he did. Just do what you know’s right for you! P.S. You’re way cooler than Lorenzo could ever hope to be!
Hey mate – good to hear you are well and on the mend!
Catch em down!

I said the same on crash…

Great to read you are on the mend, had us all worried. Worst half hour ever since living on the island (6 years). My mother was going to give up drinking tea as a mark of respect…. thank god you made it. That said she still needs to work on her cuppa skills.
Here’s hoping to seeing you at the southern
Glad your on the mend, Guy. Might see you in Morzine in a couple of weeks, shout you a muztig! Thanks for signing those shirts at Manchester Dainese shop. Go Big
Guy, you owe my ‘rents and the next door neighbour a new wall. Maybe you can pop round with a trowl and a few bricks after the southern?
Only messin, its all sorted, and we’re all so glad your ok. Take it steady, and dont be doing anything stupid. Everyone wants to see you back on soon, but not unless your fully fit.
All the best, Rob
Glad youre gettin well..came all the way from Philippines to watch TTrace 2010. Twas fantastic! gave me adrenaline rush. Anyway, hope that everythings fine w/ u now..Good Luck to your next race Guy!
Thanks for the great wallpaper pic for my computer. No need to change it any more, so don’t try and make a better one!!!! Glad to hear you are on the mend. Keep on the black stuff.
