Isle of Man TT
I have been watching these lunatics all week.
Wether you like or or even agree with motorcycle road racing it takes a special breed of man to average 130mph over 37 miles on a street /road circuit . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVXc29ZgutI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GiHC...eature=related |
One year we are going to have to get together and head over to see this. I love the "jumps" over the bridge in town!

Anyone see the run of the scooby being piloted thru the circuit
Was pretty wild also Alex |
Mark Higgins' Scooby run took 10 years to plan as there was always problems in finding a car, getting sponsors and track time during TT week. Mark's time was almost pathetic against the bikes over the circuit and he had a big moment at Bray that he says was the biggest one of his 20 year career.
The on bike cameras put the speed of these machines in perspective with 200mph being recorded by the top riders. Sitting in an armchair watching the progress down a tree lined road at over 170mph was unbelieveable, my eyes and brain just couldn't keep up this event used to be on the World Championship for Bikes calender until the teams and the governing body withdrew. I doubt whether the likes of Rossi or Haden or Pedrosa or the other MotoGP riders would have the balls to ride this event competitively, it takes a special fool/hero to achieve what riders like McGuiness do year after year.
