20 years isn't a bad run. [thumbsup]

Sad but the right thing to do. He'll probably have a lifetime of shoulder trouble as it is. Enough pain is enough. [bang]

Got to meet him several years ago when he was racing in AMA SBK. He was at Advanced Motor Sports Ducati in Dallas. He signed a poster and a Ducati book for me. Super nice guy, no bs, no attitude.

He has said over and over again how much he and his family liked living in the States. What a nice gig... having a place here and IOM!! [thumbsup]

Thanks Neil for all the great racing years and memories!! [clap] [bow_down] Wish you the best.
