Hickman doubles up to make it a dozen.
Tumblr media
The afternoon’s Supertwin Race broke the pattern of having the same podium trio in Race 2 as in Race 1. The mythical “luck of the Irish” took a break as the fancied men from the Emerald Isle hit problems. The afternoon was warmer than the morning; it was t-shirt order for the crowd in the Parliament square. The crowd was small by TT standards; especially for a local bank holiday. It seemed that normal service would be the order of the day as Michael Dunlop (MD Racing Paton) led at Glen Helen by 1.02s from Mike Browne (Burrows Paton), with Peter Hickman (PHR Yamaha) in third. Hickman’s Yamaha had a new engine purchased from Michael Rutter and worked on all of the previous day by his team. Jamie Coward (Steadplan Kawasaki) was 4th, Stefano Bonetti (ILR Paton) 5th and Josh Brookes (Dafabet Kawasaki) was in 6th. Michael Rutter was seventh, but he clipped a kerb in Kirk Michael whilst checking the rev counter and broke his steering damper; he pulled out in the pits. Paul Jordan never reached Glen Helen; he was forced to retire at Harold’s. Coward soon joined the list of retirees; he was out at the far end of Kirk Michael. At Ballaugh, Dunlop was on lap record pace; he led by 3.35s from Mike Browne; with Hickman 5.82s down in third; this on a bike that he was hoping would give him a top 10 finish.  Dominic Herbertson was first into Ramsey on the CC Engineering Kawasaki, Rutter was next; then the flying Dunlop. Still on lap record pace, Dunlop led by 5.28s from Browne; who was on a personal best lap. Hickman was 9.2s back in third; Brookes, Bonetti and Pierre-Yves Bian completed the top 6. Browne set a sector record on the mountain; but took only 0.1s from Dunlop. Then the drama began in earnest; Dunlop had to grab the clutch on the climb to Brandywell; his race was over; he would not draw level with Joey on 26 wins. With a lap at 121.069mph, Mike Browne led by 11.65s as the riders came in for the mandatory pit stop. Brookes was third going into pit lane; a long stop due to him accidentally switching of the electronics cost over 30s and dropped him off the leader board. Bian was the rider on the move; he was 4th entering pit lane. At Glen Helen; Browne’s lead was 12.2s over Hickman. Bian was third; but only 1.7s ahead of Herbertson. At Ballaugh, the lead was 13.8s as they jumped the bridge. Herbertson had cut his deficit to Bian down to 0.03s. Herbertson was the leader on the road in Ramsey; however, there was trail of bluish smoke coming out of the machine; the harbinger of his eventual demise. He had taken 3rd from Bian by 0.43s. At the head of the field, Browne had an advantage of 16.6s over Hickman. Bonetti and Hodson filled out the top 6; but Brookes was on a mission and closing rapidly. Browne’s lead was 17s at Cronk ny Mona; then misfortune hit him; the clutch gave up the ghost coming out Governor’s Dip and he was forced to retire at the Grandstand; where he was given a big round of applause. This left Hickman with the lead; Herbertson second and Bian in third. At Glen Helen for the final time, Hickman led by 40s from Herbertson. Herbertson’s bike expired at Barregarrow. As they swept through Ramsey for the final time Hickman had a comfortable lead of 49s over Bian; with Josh Brookes 5.15s behind and closing. There were no dramas on the mountain section; Hickman duly took his 12th TT victory; one that was unexpected; at a race average of 119.319mph. Bian managed to keep Brookes at bay; he finished 47.784s behind Hickman at an average of 117.671mph. Brookes was the fastest man on track on the final lap; his lap average 120.939mph. His race average of 117.603mph left him just 2s behind Bian. Stefano Bonetti; Rob Hodson (SMT Kawasaki) and Baz Furber (DC Auto Yamaha) completed the leader board. Hickman was delighted with his victory; giving fulsome praise to his team. With more development the Yamaha may be able to match the Patons for top end. Bian was ecstatic to take a podium finish; he is fine rider; more will surely follow. Brookes was left to rue the little mistake that cost him second; he learned a lot in his first races on a Supertwin; he will be pushing for a win; if he returns next year. Read the full article

[Fecha onrol: 9 octubre de 2019]
¡No te lo vas a creer!
Panther (el gato de Paul) y Lugh (el gato de Morgana) se han enfadado. Danny le envió una carta de Morgana pidiéndole que fue a las cocinas y luego otra a Paul para que fuera también y le dijera a Morgana que no íbamos a estar en el castillo durante un tiempo. Motivos personales, dijo Danny.
Todo acabó en desastre. Paul y Morgana se enfadaron y pelearon, dicen los gatos, y la chica acabó haciendo que ¡una serpiente venenosa mordiera a Paul! A mí no me gustan nada las serpientes... Una vez una intentó comerme.
Havahna por suerte apareció y consiguió salvar a Paul, o eso me ha dicho Guisante. Pero ahora Lugh y Panther no se pueden ni ver. Cada uno defiende a su dueño... Yo solo espero que Paul esté bien. Sabe dónde conseguir buenas moscas.

Michael Dunlop takes 25th TT victory and shatters 130mph barrier in sensational Supersport Race 2.
Tumblr media
Michael Dunlop took his 25th TT win and; with a stunning final lap burst; became the first Supersport rider to break through the 130mph barrier. He was pushed to it by Peter Hickman; who also broke that barrier on his final lap. On another sun drenched afternoon in the Isle of Man the large crowds were treated to some spectacular action. The inside of the exit to Parliament square was the vantage point. This corner is much faster than it once was due to changes to the pavement and removal of some trackside furniture. The state of the road in the square is not the best; but has been ignored for many years. The race itself was virtually a carbon copy of race one; with the top three finishing in the same order; but this time ripping up the record book. Mike Browne’s chance of a top 6 finish was over on the start line; his steering damper broke; leaving him to have a “steady tour.” Nine miles into the first lap the first timing beam showed that Michael Dunlop (MD Racing Yamaha) had been quickest of all; he led Dean Harrison (Russell Racing Yamaha) by just 0.11s. Peter Hickman was third on his Trooper Beer Triumph. Davey Todd (Milenco Padgett Honda); James Hillier (Russell Racing Yamaha) and Craig Neve (Batham’s Triumph) completed the top 6. At Ballaugh; the best sector time allowed Dunlop to extend his lead to 2.685s. Harrison was just 0.877s down in third. Jamie Coward (KTS Yamaha) was rapid in the sector and had claimed sixth. Dean Harrison was the first into the square; he was bang on the ideal line and very fast. Davo Johnson (Jackson Honda) was next then; Jamie Coward and Paul Jordan (Prez Yamaha). Then the race leader, closely followed by James Hillier; whose race ended ¼ mile away at White Gates. The action was excellent for the crowd with a few nice wheelies and some running a tad wide after missing their braking point. Dunlop was leading by 5.2s as he powered “the wee girl” away towards the mountain climb. Hickman was sticking to Harrison; only 0.76s separated them. Todd was 4th; Coward up to 5th and rising young star James Hind (Bass Yamaha) sixth. An opening lap at 128.809mph gave Dunlop a lead of 6.692s from Harrison (127.997mph). The mountain is normally Hickman’s strongest area; not today; he was 2.44s down as he crossed the line. Todd, Coward and Hind held station. Jordan, Neve, Rob Hodson (SMT Yamaha) and Dom Herbertson (Dafabet Yamaha) completed the top 10. Dunlop was fastest to Glen Helen and Ballaugh; where the lead was 11.36s. Hickman was second quickest in each sector and had cut his gap to Harrison down to 1.43s. Coward was raising his pace and had displaced Todd to take 4th. Hickman was fastest on the 7 miles to Ramsey, and he now held second place 12.56s behind Dunlop; 1.41s ahead of Harrison. A lap at 129.089mph gave Dunlop a lead of 11.636s from Hickman (128.378mph); with Harrison (128.347mph) 5.49s further back. In the battle or 4th, Todd had edged back ahead of Coward. Most pit stops were around the 50s mark; Dean Harrison’s was slow and cost him 5s. At Glen Helen, Dunlop led by 11.84s; Harrison was now 11.48s adrift of Hickman. Todd, Coward and Hind completed the top 6. Hickman was fastest in the run to Ramsey; Todd was right behind and using the tow to distance himself from Coward. Dunlop’s lead was 10.2s at White Gates. Hickman was fastest on the mountain climb; Todd second fastest as he benefited from the tow. Starting the final lap Dunlop led by 8.15s; Harrison was 20.61s down in third; Todd had closed his gap to Harrison down to 3.76s. Hickman was on lap record pace at Glen Helen; he set a new sector record; however, Dunlop’s signallers had made him aware of the threat posed by Hickman and Michael had upped his pace to also average over 135mph on the first 9 miles. Dunlop set a sector record to Ballaugh; Hickman just 0.4s slower. Another sector record saw Dunlop’s lead up to 9.46s as they left us to climb the mountain for the final time; both well inside the old lap record. Dunlop was the fastest by 2s on the Bungalow sector; Hickman was 0.4s faster on the drop to Cronk ny Mona; but it was Harrison who set a new record on this sector. An amazing final lap at 130.403mph gave Dunlop victory by 9.617s from Hickman; whose last lap was at 130.219mph. Dean Harrison repelled the challenge from Todd with the aid of a lap at 129.697mph; also inside the old lap record. The race record was blown into the weeds; Dunlop’s average was 127.831mph; Hickman’s 127.542mph and Harrison’s 126.804mph. Davey Todd; Jamie Coward; James Hind; Paul Jordan, Craig Neve, Davo Johnson and Dom Herbertson completed the top 10 in what was a sensational race. Mike Browne did remarkably well to finish 12th with no steering damper. Local newcomer Ryan Cringle put in a superb performance; he finished 18th at 118.975mph. With 3 races left; for one of which he is the strong odds on favourite; it seems certain that Michael Dunlop will equal his uncle Joey’s record tally of 26 wins and he could go clear at the top of the list of the greats of the TT.

A new star rises at record breaking Pre-TT Classic.
Tumblr media
The final day of racing at the Pre-TT Classic meeting brought some great racing and saw the emergence of a new star. The weather was kind; with bright sunshine, tempered by a light breeze. There was a good crowd at the final corner; Castletown Corner; to watch the action unfold. First race was the Greystones LLC Senior Classic. There was more drama before the race began that during it. On the warm-up lap Dominic Herbertson had an engine blow up at Ballabeg; this brought him off and deposited oil on the track. It was back to the paddock whilst the clear up took place. Then after the second warm up lap Jamie Coward was forced to pull off the line with a broken clutch cable. This robbed us of a repeat of the tight battle seen in the previous day’s 1100cc race. Adam McLean (Royal Enfield) was quickest to react to the lights and led into Ballakeighan; it was a lead that he was never to lose. At Castletown Corner on the opening lap, he had a couple of seconds lead from Mike Hose (Yamaha); with third being contested by Alan Oversby (Honda) and Andy Hornby (MV Agusta). Lap 2 saw McLean well clear of Oversby; whilst he had pulled clear of the battle for third in which Hornby had taken a slender advantage. With a clear lead, McLean eased his pace and rode to his boards coming home to win by 11.6s at 93.884mph. Oversby rode a lonely race to second place; whilst the battle for third that saw many positional changes was eventually settled in favour of Andy Hornby by just 0.54s. Russ Mountford took 5th; with Will Loder completing the top 6. The next race was the Quine & Cubbon 250cc Classic and 125cc Post Classic Race. Keith Shannon (Suzuki) was quickest away from the lights, and he was never headed. In a repeat of the previous race, he set his best time on lap 2; then eased his pace to ensure that he finished. Second onto the bridge at Castletown Corner on the opening lap was Richard Ford (Suzuki); but that was to be the only time that we saw him. In third, and leading the 125cc class was promising newcomer Owen Monaghan (Honda); sadly, he too was to be forced out with machine problems. Behind them was a battle that lasted for the race distance; it was between Andy Hunt (Ducati), Barry Davidson (Honda) and Billy Cummins (Suzuki). They changed positions many times; but finished in this order. Behind them came the eventual 125cc class winner, Jeff Smith. Third race of the afternoon was the VMCC Junior Classic. The first lap charge into Castletown Corner was headed by Alan Oversby (Honda), from Russ Mountford (Honda); riding his final race before retiring from the sport; Dominic Herbertson (Honda) and Adam McLean (Royal Enfield). Barry Davidson (Honda) and Andy Hornby (MV Agusta) completed the top 6. It was not to be Oversby’s day, he suffered machine problems and limped home to retire at the end of lap 2. Herbertson was out to make up for his earlier disappointment and was the leader by a couple of metres from Mountford; Davidson. McLean with 20m adrift with Hornby 50m further back. Herbertson was gradually easing away from the chasers; Davidson had passed Mountford who was being closed by McLean. Hornby was in fifth; but he was soon to retire the MV. Herbertson controlled the race and duly came home to win by 4.4s from McLean who had taken second from Davidson on the penultimate lap; McLean’s best lap of 89.688mph was simply amazing for a 350cc single. Davison took another podium finish; with Russ Mountford settling for fourth in his last race. What a rider he has been over the years; we wish him a long, healthy and happy retirement. The top 6 was completed by Will Loder; who made up for a slow start with some fast laps on his Greeves; with sixth taken by newcomer Harley Rushton on his Honda. Next event was the Consolation race for the riders who missed out on the main races. Terence Sansom controlled the race and duly won 4.85s from Richard ford, with rod Graham third. The eagerly awaited UGGLY Senior Superbike race was next, and it provided great racing with the lap and race records being beaten. The first lap saw Paul Jordan in the lead as the riders accelerated hard away towards the start and finish line; he was just a couple of metres ahead of Joe Yeardsley; with lap record holder Jamie Coward a similar distance behind. Rhys Hardisty was fourth on his lovely RG Suzuki; one of the few non-Kawasaki machines in the race. Marc Colvin and Aaron Hughes completed the top 6. Hughes was to retire on lap 3; allowing Mike Hose to take 6th; Hose was recovering from a slow start. On lap 2, the leader was Coward; he led by 10m from Yeardsley and Jordan who were side by side going down the bypass. On lap 3 the leader was Coward; but Yeardsley was right on his tail and learning as they went along. The pace had gone up and Jordan was unable to match it; he dropped back as he race progressed but was safe in third; lapping 2 mph faster than the chasing trio of Colvin, Hardisty and Hose. On lap 4, Yeardsley led as they powered out of the tight bend and charged away to start lap 5. Coward was in the slipstream and duly retook the lead. The pace increased as they fought for the laurels. The lap record was broken on lap 5 and again on lap 6; Yeardsley setting the new mark at 106.535mph; with Coward raising his best to 106.412mph. Coward was still the leader as they began the final lap; however, Yeardsley was not going to concede and managed to be the first to come into our view from Stadium Bend. He had a 10m gap and that was enough to allow him to ensure that Coward could not try a demon dive on the brakes into Castletown Corner. He gained good drive out the corner and despite the best efforts of Coward he took victory by 0.6s; much to the delight of the locals in the crowd. His performance was stellar given that his first ever road race was in this race last year. He gave praise to Coward at the end saying that he had learned a lot from Jamie. Jordan completed his race 27s down on Coward. Mike Hose, Andy Sailor and Marc Colvin completed the top 6; the three were covered by just 4.3s. The second 3 Wheeling Sidecar Race was the final one on the programme. Lap record holders Kieran Clarke / Andrew Johnson made a better start than in race 1 and led the field through Ballakeighan on lap 1. They were 10m ahead of Bob Dawson / Matthew Sims, with Jack Gristwood / Alice Smith holding third as they went through Castletown Corner. The order was the same on lap 2; but just after they left us the red flag ended proceedings and the result was declared at the end of lap 1. Danny Quirk / Dylan Weston crashed on the exit to Stadium. Quirk has broken a collarbone; but has been released from hospital. Weston has suffered leg fractures and has been flown to the UK for specialist treatment. We wish him a full and speedy recovery. This superbly run and very friendly meeting provided an excellent curtain raiser for the TT Festival. Read the full article

El siguiente es... ¡Paul Jordan!
Gryffindor y mejor amigo de Danny. Es nórdico y siempre echa de menos la nieve, pero se le pasa con un par de hidromieles o cervezas de mantequilla con jengibre.
También está en sexto y, como Danny, es bateador en el equipo de Quidditch de su casa.
No sé por qué, pero todas las chicas, sean de la casa que sean, suelen reírse nerviosas cuando él está cerca... 🤔
