Dutch TT-weather ; forecast for Saturday...

Morgen is het overwegend bewolkt en valt er soms wat regen of een bui. Pas later in de middag zou de zon nog overtuigend tevoorschijn kunnen komen. Maximumtemperatuur 20 of 21 graden. De westen tot zuidwestenwind is opnieuw nadrukkelijk aanwezig en zal matig tot vrij krachtig zijn, windkracht 4 of 5.


...tomorrow it will be clouded, and maybe from time to time a bit of rain...
...in the afternoon mostly sunny, and a maximum temperature of 20, or 21 degrees Centigrade...

...wind from the west/south-west...
...wind force 4 or 5...

... http://www.stvincent.ac.uk/Resources/Weather/Charts/beaufort.html ...





...and yes ; I will be there tomorrow...
...as a (and please 'listen' closely..) 'BMW-VIP'...

...200 Euro for a ticket...



...will post pics after tomorrow !...

WAY

Are your weather forecasts more accurate than ours? I dunno why we don't just call up a farmer or a fisherman - they know what's really going on...

Anyway - Have fun Ron

PS
Do you do the superbikes as well?

Does that mean we will see you doing some demonstration laps, on your candy cane, before the main event?

If you're gonna post anything, please create a different thread and mark it "SPOILER" so our American friends don't get their pants in a twist for knowing things they don't want to know just yet.

...nah, that picture tells you nothing!

Just watched the race... UNREAL! Without giving to much away, man of the race for me... the lanky Texan with the goofy grin!... Stoner does not count, he is not from the same planet!
