Simon not quite stepping across the line!
Glynn Durrant checking the finishers it was the usual mad rush thanks to all who helped Glynn with their clip boards to check the numbers across the line.
And at marshalling point 3 where potential new member Simon (1st claim Festival?) who took photo of Russel Williams me & Russel Mantle (76yrs) who stopped off to chat. Un beknown to me he is well known by Ron & Doreen and a past fast man in his day with times of 22min for 10, 57min for 25 & 1.57 for 50 miles finishing 3rd one year in Nat champs 25TT. This was in the late 1950's. He has amassed 960,000 miles so far and is determined to go the million. We wish him well! Strangely enough he has never heard of Ray Dare, perhaps he's too old for him!
