Im getting lost on who is riding what at the Manx this year.
I think Chris Swallow is riding Dave Kenagh's NZ Manx but he might be riding a Norton Works Racing Manx. If he isnt then his dad is. Bill Swallow still holds the Classic 500 lap record.
I know that last year Chris on the Aermachi made up the 10 second gap on Cameron Donald on the 7R in the 350 race before Chris threw a chain. There are different techniques required to ride the old bikes versus the moderns.
Bill Swallow is riding my friends Eldee 2 Velo 250 this year (the bike Chris rides in NZ) and Ill will be in the pit crew. Hope it lasts the distance

Could be a battle of the Antipodeans! (Chris is working on his NZ citizenship these days)
