I have watched these races for years and it still amazes me. I don't know who has the bigger stones, the riders or the spectators rubber necking on the edge of the road!!

I would love to visit that place and watch the races. I couldn't imagine hitting 200on those little roads.
YouTube “Mark Higgins Full Record Breaking POV TT Lap. It’s an incredible 170mph ride with the driver talking you through the course.
Wow. What country is this in ?
Huge dents in the fuel tanks on those bikes
Who controls John Gill?
A good friend of mine has raced there.
Titanium stones is putting it mildly.
Hi Mike.
I saw today
John Mcquinness has the number one plate this year
Should be some great racing, Michael should break Joey's all time win record
And I'd love to see John win one or 2 more races
My roommate in college talked about when you get over 140 the bikes hit different, I'll never know.
Those guys are the definition of Adrenaline Junkie.
Pretty much stopped watching all motorsports except Isle of Man TT, because to me nothing else compares.
But - it got cancelled for a couple years during covid, then we started streaming cheap stuff and I don't get the channel now. Bummer.

269 fatalities since the racing started in 1907 averaging almost 3 riders per year dying during practice or the race. I met a guy who has been going for many years to watch them.

Isle of man which is small island that sits in the Irish Sea between England and Ireland. Guys get killed every year racing there.Originally Posted by yatesville88fan

Looks like that everyday on Rt 57 in Chicago......................minus the bullets flying around.
The sidecar races are cool too.
"the liberties of the American people were dependent upon the ballot-box, the jury-box, and the cartridge-box; that without these no class of people could live and flourish in this country..."
To add to the other reply, the course circumnavigates the island, going from the town roads to the outskirts and then up over the mountain and back into town. 6 laps for superbike 4 laps superstock and supersport. Refueling and pit stops; Motors blow up along the way, and they are known to outrun the TV helicopter thru the mtn course.
Superbike is the king daddy; superstock is also good; battle of the twins and sidecar are cool too.
One of my goals every time I can watch it is to try to understand what Michael Dunlop is saying in his interviews.

The only ones crazier than the pilots are the monkeys.
