Watching the highlights of the NW 200 today i was thinking, are there any ladies doing this (and the TT)
then thought a bit more and as ladies don't have a certain part/s of a mans anatomy that it is highly unlikely.
They are bonkers (the riders in these races not ladies
)

As it says on one of my t-shirts:
You donβt need bollocks to ride a fast bike

Where do you think I've been this weekend? Away with a lady racer and there were quite a few other ladies in most of the classes. They are everywhere, Bob
One of the few sports where people of any sex, race and age can compete as equals. The bikes aren't really equal, but it just makes us poorer teams try harder

Slightly off tack , but fair play to Maria Costello this week in the TT , made history by being the first woman to race in the solo and side-car races .
Both races on the same day due to weather messing with the timetable .

I had a year being a sidecar passenger, back in the 70's and my girlfriend I go pit crewing for is having her first go as passenger in the next classic sidecar race at Lydden circuit later this year. There's no stopping us

Bee,
Let us know when you are next north of the border (London) and we will try to meet up.
I love the ride to Cadwell

It's a horrid ride from here, but such lovely roads and countryside once you get there. John was house hunting in that area when we first found out that he was sick and we decided against it so it bought back a few memories, being back there again.
I'll let you know once I get everything under control and start riding further afield again. It would be good to catch up soon.
