Ryan Farquhar had high hopes for the 2011 Isle of Man TT, but a practice crash saw him sit out most of the racing and struggle when he did take to the 37.7-mile Mountain course.
The frustration is clear in the eyes of the Dungannon racer as he awaits his turn for a practice run - it is rare to see anything other than a cheerful face on Ryan, one of the most successful road racers in the business.
