June 2014 - It's all about the TT

Wow!  Has it really beren half a year since I filled this in?????  Honestly, it's because I was spending the time getting fitter!!

I've now fractured my arm ice skating in December, so ignore any mistakes please!  It'll mostly be a photo diary, cos I can't remember everything in great detail!

I did complete the IronMay competition, but forgot to send off for the tee shirt.

Finished 13 days early!!!!
Final position, very happy with it!

Then came TT races, I cycled to and from my marshalling spots, up to 25 mins away, closest was about 10 mins away.  It was really embarrassing having to cycle (with my flask & lunch in the wicker basket) past the spectators along the road, but wearing a marshals jacket got me some cheers!











I had to deal with an accident, on the last lap of the Senior Race, the rider was fine (how's my bike?), but I had to run, carrying the large first aid kit to the accident, then help roll the rider onto the stretcher, lift the stretcher with 5 others, carry rider across the road, down into a field and onto a helicopter.
paramedic with big motorbike wanted to try mine!
Now you see why I needed to get fitter this year!!!
