Well done Guy!

I am so thrilled for the dear boy - a 5th, a 4th, a 2nd and then finally: a WIN, in the last Superbike race at the Ulster Grand Prix on Sunday.

He is so talented, and such a lovely boy.  I am sure if Grandad Edgar were still alive he would approve of me throwing myself madly at his feet.  But alas, I fear that I am now too old for such things.  Sic transit gloria mundi.

Is dear Guy hurt?

Guy Martin was at the Armoy Road Races recently, but didn't perform quite as well as expected - no surprise really as, a few days before, he rode in The Salzkammergut Mountain Bike Trophy race in Austria!  It's 120 miles long, and includes climbs of some 24,000 feet! Dear Guy was actually the first British non-Professional rider home!

And now, it has been announced that he is to be the presenter on More4 TV's coverage of the 2011 World Sheepdog Trials.  Oh, he is a talented boy!  Actually, to be honest, I'm not totally a doggy person - more a pussy lover, and I can never see one without wanting to stroke it.  But my friend Jennifer has a Giant Schnauzer, and I am sure Guy would know how to deal with that!
