twobone Posted December 5, 2012 Posted December 5, 2012 Isle of Mann is still the greatest/craziest race on the planet. A must see before it is banned
Birkin42 Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 I've been following the races for decades. One of the most spectacular racing on the planet IMO. Every time I watch it I figure any year now it is going to be no more. When I was racing in the 90's I was thinking going over to do it, but unfortunately never happened. The clip towards the end where the rider is carrying the front while leaned over going around a corner at a pretty good clip is pretty awesome.
DeanG Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 Best bit of riding I ever saw was recorded on the Isle of Mann TT. I have huge respect for those who race it. Someday maybe I can go and see it.
S1Steve Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 TwoBone, Your right, throw in a few more madmen and it gets even more bonkers... Really cool to watch..
WestTexasS2K Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 Its really crazy what those guys do. I wonder how many die each year?
Kitcat Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 Per the Google, 6 died in 2011: nothing like a "tank-slapper" at 150 mph.
