Mint is all i can say. It’s what riding motorbikes is all about. After racing around short circuits all season it is mega to get that first lap in of the TT. It’s like nothing else – all that speed is something that you’ll never be able to experience anywhere else. No pressure as well as the first night’s practice is always untimed, so it’s just about going out there and getting back into that way of riding I was doing 12months ago.
The bikes feel pretty good straight away. Handling is not a million miles away. Now I’m just looking forward to another run out Monday night. I’ll let you know how it goes.
