With me forever Chris. This was a bad year. I remember seeing your face at 2am. It was lashing down. It was freezing. It was muddy. It was franky shit.

Aargh.... can still visualise Max coming out of the pissing gloom at 2.30am after a 2.15 minute lap mumbling 'yer dinnae wannae go out there laddy...'. I got back after an extended dawn walk an hour and three quarters later with a flat tyre adding insult to injury. The horror, the horror.
At least it was the year the heckling tent was born - The Guv'nor going beserk at all and sundry was a troubling if amusing sight to behold.
2007 wasn't a bundle of laffs neither...
Thinking I'll hit Wiki for some more original battle quotes to replace the tired Somme references...

Just looking at that forecast and it seems that visibility will be ranging from good to excellent.
Which is a positive.
I've sorted out a selection of tyres ranging from dry weather to full on mud spikes. I'm guessing I'll need the latter.

Was going to put helium in tyres to make bike lighter but thought that wouldn't help with traction ,lol

Panaracer Spikes are not good at MM . You need a thinner tyre . Continental do a 1.5 mud tyre which is perfect for MM .
The forecast looks really bad again this year .
I hope you all have plenty of spare brake pads , you are going to need them .
2009 was brilliant though .
Have a good time guys .
