The other signal I once got from Kathy was when showing her a lap of the TT course on the Island on my 907ie. We were going up the start of the Mountain, and as I went through 110mph and was heading towards 120 I could feel her legs clamping tighter and tighter on to me. I became aware that perhaps this wasn't what she was keen on and throttled back a little. I think she's forgiven me. ☺ We got a photo before the ride:

... but she wasn't so interested in one afterwards!
