First, the NEWS: Liam committed us to a fifth and final TT for the season, on Tuesday September 4th. I’m going to spend that day chasing 30-odd semi-terrified four year olds running on pure adrenaline around a building without air-conditioning, so I doubt very much that anyone else has a valid excuse for missing out. Plus, we’ll go to Vern’s after. Beer!
I’m going to create a Facebook event for this one so we can get a general idea for numbers to give Vernon a heads-up. respondez, s’il vous plait HERE
Now, the RESULTS: 10! Beautiful! Bike-riders! laid down some fab times. Conditions: approaching perfect.
That there 34.54 by Sean Ryan is the fifth fastest ride in FDTT history – keeping company with Russ VE, Thierry, and somebody Sanders. Nice One, Sean!

At least this year I didn’t lose them, OK?!
A year plagued by wind. A million thanks to all you BAMFs for continuing to come out and play!
We love doing this.
We might even get on our bikes next year.
Why isn’t there an eye-roll emoji on my Mac?
$650.00 going out to ALS Windsor-Essex thanks to you all.
Have the best winters, everyone. See you, nice & plump, and happily hibernated on the first Tuesday in April.

Round 5 brought favourable conditions and fast times. Many riders laying down their first times of the year – we will see if these times can be lowered next month!
Round 6 is fast approaching: Tuesday, September 5. Please plan on hanging around for a season-ending tailgate social to follow!
Mr and Mrs Consistency awards go to Dionne and Joey for pretty much exact replicas of their July rides – according to our very sophisticated timing system! Kudos to Mr Pat Bell for a very impressive fast time of the night – representing the Eddy contingent with panache! Chapeau aussi to Julie Reiter for dropping an astounding SEVEN MINUTES this season, earning herself the third fastest women’s course time of the year and a big ole’ bullseye on her back for next month.

Such a beautiful night. What every baby TT dreams of being when it grows up.
The reign of Chris Duran, Duran continues! This season’s fastest mark has been lowered by 12 seconds. Looking forward to seeing what can be laid out next month.

Alas, another month, another cool & windy TT night.
But we know this is June is Essex County and the best is yet to come. Mark your calendars; round 4 is July 4th.
We Save(d) a Prayer that someone would show up to knock Mark Henry of his lofty perch of fastest time of the year and What are the Chances, but the Notorious Chris Duran, Duran was Hungry Like a Wolf and obliged. Is There Something we Should Know, Chris?
Don’t worry everyone, It’s a New Moon on Monday so next month, all bets will be off. You’ll get him in July. You’ll need a View to Kill, as it’s unlikely he’ll have Come Undone by then.
