« on: 07 October 2008, 21:24 »
Hey Guys
Best regards from the Isle of Man!!
Absolutely fantastic site and having looked through the various forums, some of you really do have fountains of knowledge  :laugh:
I hope to learn a great deal more....would be great to see some of the Mk I's and II's roaring round our mountain roads.....with no speed limits on certain roads on this rock!!
All the very best

I couldn't take another day of not being able to drive more than 25 miles in a straight line, shoprite, or people saying "fella!"  :grin:

Seriously, it's good over there, quality place.  Lived in Port Erin first, then moved to Douglas.
