I Enjoyed This
Some great video footage, you may have seen some of this before, but I just can't get enough
NW 200 and IOM TT, love it, because these are the types of road I ride and I can really appreciate the skill level and the fearlessness of these riders. I'll rarely top 90-100mph (and go out at 04:30am to do it), but these guys are doing 200mph and 190mph in the wet!!
There is so much going on, you can watch 2/3 times and still see things you missed the first time. The first vid for me is the best, pure road racing, the TT is great, but it's essentially a time trial, the NW 200 is a proper ***** to the wall road race. Five, six or seven abreast into a corner, proper roads with curbs! Can't imagine any of the MOTO GP riders being competitive
Was it 2011 or 2012 Rossi and Lorenzo tootled round the TT at all of about 40mph on a 'lap of honour'?
You can tell the guy who put this footage together is a real fan and the full length video at the end is very interesting for anyone thinking of doing the TT thing.
Sorry you might have to click on the link, the youtube set-up doesn't seem to be working for me. Worth watching though, for the guy clipping the curb and the edge of road dirt racing!

This one seems to work OK. Check out 3:47, lesson on how to take a corner on one wheel!
Maybe click on the link for this as well

I watched as much of it on TV as I could find. It was just on here about 3 weeks ago. I found I watched more this year than previous years, maybe because I now own a motorcycle
I even managed to score some Honda TT Legends decals, program, T-shirt and other goodies from this years IOM.
Would like to go someday and see it in person!!!
