The Old Sage once said" better to be thought a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubts about it"
Standing at the end of Sulby Straight by the bridge as I have for many years to watch the first sidecar race
over the radio came the following "Tim Reeves has just gone through with all 3 wheels on the ground" :o
10 minutes later another gem, "things are hotting up the brakes on the sidecar wheels are working" :roll:

Is it me, It must be,please send help.
