Michael Rutter TT blog: "It didn't go quite as planned"

Michael Rutter, 09 June 2009 14:12

Saying yesterday didn’t quite go to plan for us in the Superbike TT race on the Bathams Suzuki or in practice on the JMF Millsport supersport bike is a bit of an understatement. We finally got our engine back at 10pm on Sunday night so it was all a bit of a rush to get the bike rebuilt for Monday’s ...

Rutter TT Blog: "I must be one of the few glad to see the rain"

Michael Rutter, 29 May 2009 18:00

I’m having a great time at Thruxton on the Wrox Suzuki. It’s different to what I’ve been used to riding but we were sixth in the first session and eight in the second and I’m confident there’s much more to come. We ran fourth for ages but stuck to the same hard-compound tyre so we could try lots of different ...
