On behalf of the Directors and Office staff of the TTMA I would like to thank all of you that marshalled at TT 2011for you support.
Throughout the fortnight we had 1532 marshals sign up to do duty, which included 363 newcomers which is a fantastic effort and much appreciated.
I must also thank those of you that were willing to move about within their sectors, when needed, to make up shortages, thus allowing practice/race to start with the minimum of or no delay.
To those of you who marshal on the mountain, and have to be on station for longer than those on the lower sections. I thank you all for doing that and for your patience with us in getting a satisfactory way of getting you off the mountain at the end of sessions.
This will be looked at by all parties concerned prior to next years TT, and hopefully it will be sorted prior to the event.
A good night was had at the Marshals Supper, with well deserved long service awards being given out and a chat show which included John McGuinness, Keith Amor, Ian Hutchinson, Simon Andrews and William Dunlop
At the time of writing this we are just 8 weeks away from the first practice for the MGP. Phew it's all go.
Once again many thanks to you all for your support and look forward to welcoming you back, be it for the MGP or the TT, we will always be glad to see you, and remember that without you it just wouldn't happen.
