Re: No Isle of Man
Well... as much as I love the isle of man races (IMO the best rider and motorcycle proving grounds in the world)... I had to sit back and think about the concequences of the spread of the disease to the island. Honestly, I would rather wait a year and see the races return to a healthy island than go back next year and see people in the doldrums of recession due to the loss of their livestock. Foot and mouth disease seems to be spread rather easily, and with the influx of so many tourists, it would be like playing russian roulette and hoping nothing bad happens. Oh well, I'll get over it and hopefully everything will be good to go next year.
