| The Nocturne is going to feature a one lap (well a flying three quarter lap actually) for Olympic Medalists. Who is going to win and why? Hoy, Queally, Manning, Newton or Hayles. |

| Possibly, but a Ferrari will be second. The local Ferrari Owners Club are supplying five following cars. |

Poor the Rob Hayles, run over by a 250 GTO 
(he'd like that though, being a car buff)

| I think messrs Downing, Elliot, Holt, Winn, etc may have something to say about you winning the Elite race. Nice to hear that you're confident though. |

| Well, a lap is 1.2 miles, so i reckon the TT will be a touch over a KM. There is a flying start. Don't know if that benefits anyone though. |

Since BrianS beat the reigning British Kilo Champ the last time this sort of event happened I would expect him to defend his title...
...or perhaps the said former Kilo Champ would want revenge...

I think there was a similar sort of thing in Edinburgh a few years back. I'm sure BrianS or Joxster could enlighten us?
They love to talk about it

I have gone for Hayles as he was one of my team managers GB juniors 
You are right in what you said the other day though Bartali, its going to be the fastest anyone has ridden a bike down from the cottage Hospital (last corner) to the finish ever
I think wozza has tried but always gives up when he reaches the Tavern |
