My reflections: My dreams started 30 or 40 years ago while reading Cycle World or Guide. The thing I remember most was due to it's funny name, "The pub at Creg-ny-baa is a popular hangout for local race fans" I like bikes, I like beer, so I wanna go there. I knew it was expensive, I knew I could not afford such a trip, I worried about being poor
and broke. I knew I should think long and hard if a TT vacation is a good idea. I decided to do all my thinking and worrying the very first minute when I get back from the TT
This is motorcycle nirvana nothing short. In the end however I was hoping vacation would be "best ever", it ender up a lot closer to "real Bummer"
No racing occurs in any rainy ,wet, or damp conditions, on wet roads, or reduced visibility. 2019 got the most rain
of any year since 1981. Many races were postponed, canceled, eliminated, or shortened. This is not baseball.
rainouts are not rescheduled. if race has not happened by end of week 2, it aInt gonna happen. RAIN, WHAT RAIN?
I live in SoCal, what's rain? It figures. Like they say, "sometimes your luck is good, and sometimes....
But I am now the proud owner of 2 official TT hats, 2 shirts, 1 coffee mug, and a letter opener. And it only cost me 12 grand
A big surprise was there are sooo many way bitchen bikes not available in USA, especially in smog restriction Cal.
I found it very difficult to convince most people I met that "yes, I am from America, yes I am big, bald, old and fat, and NO, I do not ride a Harley" If you are American, it is assumed you ride a Harley>
Enuf for now, more boring drivel headed you way soon
