    You see the respect and fire burning in Martin. You see the feeling of accomplishment and hope in McGuinness.
    They are both humble and amazing to meet in person.
    Lets be real here for a moment though. I don't think anyone can doubt that McGuinness would be just as happy if Martin wins than he would be if he won again. Maybe even happier that he was able to focus Martin's natural talent enough to help a champion emerge.
    I really hope I get to meet these two Gentleman sometime. I can't afford to go to the TT this year though. As a college student in the U.S. it's just not in the cards for awhile to come. I feel like I'm missing out on the world by not going.
