It's the strongest ever entry for the Gold Cup this year, who’s thinking about going?

Among the confirmed entries are
Michael & William Dunlop
Guy Martin
Ian Lougher
Adrian Archibald
Bruce Anstey
John McGuinness will only be there on the Sunday, apparently….
Ryan Farquhar had entered, but following his announcement last week after the death of Trevor Ferguson I very much doubt whether he’ll be there.

I’m thinking about being there for the Saturday, fewer crowds and fresher burgers :old:

Some lovely words from Ryan today, looks as if he will be at Scarborough, albeit parading.

I haven't been since I was a kid, and would love to go. I should be back from holiday Saturday morning, and if I'm back early enough I will zap over. What time's kick off?

I'm not sure now - bit of important business has come up on Sunday, and the law of priorities might mean I need to be elsewhere on Saturday :( ..... we'll see.

Right - sorted. :D

We'll be there tomorrow ... latest news is that history will be made there tomorrow - the Dunlop Dynasty will be venturing into sidecars 8-)

After we saw Michael playing in an outfit at the Jurby track a couple of weeks ago, he's sorted the deal for him & Dan Sayle to enter this weekend. Full story here. (Can we spot any Diggertours pals in the pic, btw?)

Looking forward to this ..... 8-) 8-) 8-)

Could be me behind the woman in the white T-Shirt but I don't remember seeing Michael in the sidecar so probably not lOl

Just back - he did OK, but a touch lacklustre in the solos today - neither of the Dunlop brothers were on it.

Guy Martin was just uncatchable all day - Bruce Anstey was improving later on but half asleep as usual in the Superbike race :roll:

Fabulous day - never saw a cloud all day, spirited ride there & back, we really do have some cracking empty roads in this quiet corner of the world. 8-)
