We are a motorcycle race team who like to ride anything two wheeled! First there is veteran racer Steve Old Moods who started racing at the age of 9 in school boy motocross and more recent racing adventures have included the Southern 100, Manx Grand Prix and Classic TT. Next is Mrs Moods, aka gob on a stick, who started racing at the age of 50 after getting fed up of picking her husband up off the side of the track and decided to have a go herself and so she did!
what a joy to see you guys back on the island..thought steve 2023 was his last TT.....but as it said back then '''''''maybe not''''''. i see kevin hasn't aged at all ,the ''''''' beach digger'''''' pit pup is in great shape it seems,that is great!!!. will follow your 2024 iom TT effort very closely,love your silky smooth voice and comments MISS. LETS GO!!!
Thank you so much. We have not put an entry in for the MGP but will be there with the next generation rider Scott Larkin who will be riding the Dilligaf/3D Moto Aprilia RS660 in the junior MGP. Due to moving and relocating to Wales, we still aren’t set up here for the bikes and none of the bikes are here with us yet so we still aren’t sure what or where we will be racing as yet but will update everyone on Facebook as and when we know. Thank you again for your kind words and support
We used to Marshal for NG Club, Among many, at all circuits in the UK, during 90s and mid 2000s, is Nino still officiating? Cadwell must be our favourite of all, love your channel, Cheers, DINO and PANDA.
I didn't know you did abit of knee sliding elaine, nice one guys it looked like a great weekend, don't know about the hairy arsed girls thou, " more then a ten pinter" lol, good causes thou!
Well done Steve, you had a great year. And some fantastic results makes all the hard work worth it. Elaine Well done. You've worked so hard this year. On the pit, bikes and motocross bike to improve your riding. And you can tell you look really confident on the bike. Keep it up and well done with all the videos. Bring on next year.see you soon
Awh bless you elaine, you've all been and done it got the tee shirt, and memories and trophies, without your enthusiasm and the guys bike skills it wouldn't happen, you've all made the dream come true, thanks for the videos and hope to meet up with you all next time, look after yourselfs.
Thanks Elaine. Your videos captured the Manx perfectly I have been there 28 times. I even saw my old camping space in the Paddock which brought back memories. Nothing lasts forever so we must respect Steves decision as he knows when to retire. So thats it- Or Is It? PS I cannot stop humming the background tune. Must put it on a loop
Thank you . It’s more me than him calling it day. Saturday finished me. The worry the stress and well you know, you’ve done it! All things must past and with that so do new beginnings and you never know we could be back but in another guise! Watch this space
Elaine, yet again, well done to you and the team. As they say, every man needs a strong woman by their side, and Steve has definitely got one of them. Well done to Steve. Even though you calling the fat bloke, he is still a fast one. Speak to you soon.
Ode to the Spits... NEVER in the history of Mankind... Have so many, owed so much to SO FEW! The RAF WAS The 20th Centuries TRUE Band of Brothers... Shoulder to shoulder with the 506th PIR " Band of Brothers" Normandy ON << WITH the vets of Crecy Againcourt... WWI .... For ALL our Vets of The War..... Ending the NAZI scourge.... We CAN do it again! WE CAN AGAINST The 21st century Russian INVADER Hordes.... SLAVA UKRAINE! J.C. Scotts Irish Dutch & English.... Age 74.... Chicago... God Save The King!
Steve, I hope you would consider Ireland The Walderstown Road Races just outside Athlone. I would love to see ye all Inc Kev, thank you Elaine for the videos.
Sounds brilliant! We are looking at investing in a caravan we can keep over in Ireland and travel back and forth like Shaun did. We may even have Kev’s baby brother with us too!!!
Well Stevie, you've done yourself proud, mate. I got to honestly say I only started following you. When Elaine put your videos up. And I'm so glad she did because we met 2 wonderful people. Hopefully, when I see you in October. I'll have a big Toblerone for you.and yes, Elaine, a nice bottle of wine for you.
Well done, Steve and Elaine. I can understand, that have taken the decision not to return for racing. I‘ve been at MGP2007 with just one bike - and broke down in the race just before Ballaugh in the 1st lap. And returnIng for at least the Pre-TT Classic is now extremely costly for us ‚continentals‘ as all events on the IOM are now national and not ‚european open‘ anymore since 2019. The insurance alone costs a fortune! Enough mourned - let‘s celebrate your successful MGP2023 assault! All the best for your next ventures!
Thank you yes it is a huge cost not just financially but emotionally and physically too. Thank you for your support and can’t wait for our next adventure to begin
Thanks Elaine for the videos . Todays shows the emotions riders and helpers go through. I have been there too. Once you get home and the the Manx blues disappear I wonder if Steve will change his mind for next year. Perhaps with less bikes. Anyway congrats to you all, including Kevin and the music is perfect for the video. Thank you
Thank you. It’s been a tough decision but the cost emotionally financially and physically is so high. Watch this space for his next adventures! We very much hope we can return to Ireland and travel to the continent and Steve has a dream for his 60th which means going state side
What an epic day, 3 races and some enduro! I bet Steve slept well on Saturday night. Loved the vlogs, it’s been really great so see what goes on behind the scenes to get a bike to the start line. Gutted that’s it’s your last Manx as I’ve only just found you, I’ve a sneaking suspicion there might be a return in the future 🤔😁. Thanks so much for sharing your experience and good luck for the future.
i loved,loved,loved following the dilligaf family racing adventures in the manx GP. love the organic,still quite professional quality of the videos,you guys rocks.sad to learn it was steve's last manx,because i'm late to the party,first time ever i've looked at your videos which,if i understand correctly,were the lasts ever concerning steve racing on the island ....but whatever,love you guys,kudo to steve and the team for your dedication and personal investment into the whole effort,and of course,i cannot forget KEVIN's contribution, the eternal smile on his face is really enjoyable,love the pitdoodle presence.
Thank you so much for all your kind words. Kevin is quite the star of the show. It’s been a tough decision but onto pastures new and new exciting adventures
Fantastic job ste, to do the racing and enduro green laning too, he must have slept well last night, big thanks to the owner of the 300 ktm and his mates for the time.
Elaine you need to give up the cigars as you sound like your pushing the bike, lol. Loving your coverage, Steve had a humongous mileage to cover, hope he loved it.
@@dilligafracing517 glad you finished with a dance and a good night and hopefully a few beers, the main thing is your riders road and concerned the best road circuit in the world and lived to tell your gran kids. X
Well, what can you say 2 incredible people who have got a heart of gold Elaine is absolutely fantastic. Without Elaine's help, I wouldn't be looking to start my first season next year. Racing Steve is an absolute gentleman, and I will be picking his brains for all the advice I can get. We'll done to you guys and the team good job 👏
I too got emotional, I truly get it, I retired in 96 from motocross, that's probably why I still race mtb for fun, thanks for everything and enjoy today and tomorrow's race.
Hello from Clapham beds, me and her indoors loving you're videos, keep em coming. Ps, could you say hello to joy for us, many thanks Phil and Lorraine ❤.
Your explanation of DilliGaf nearly killed me!!!! I remember using similar words when I was racing. It was a much ruder set of letters though. Good luck for the rest of the meeting.
