The Isle of Man TT is coming up in just a few days. Anybody else going to be watching it?

It is a bucket list thing for me. Hopefully I will be able to get across the pond someday and watch it in person.

Either way there always seems to be a fatal crash, but these guy's live for this, Hickman got the record lap last year , wouldn't expect that this year

I want someone to knock Dunlap off the podium consistently. Michael is good, and he knows it. It's time he gets a spanking.

Tenacious a.k.a stubborn. That is how I am described by my wife. . I have a fair amount of Irish blood in my heritage.

Day 1 - Rain Out
Day 2 - Rain Out
Day 3 - Race stopped due to a fatal crash.

Overall not the best TT this far.

It was nice to see John Mcguiness back on a bike.

I been following this islander's posts on utube, really fascinating seeing through a local yokel's eyes!

Thanks for the link! I did enjoy that. I like hearing the spectator banter as well as the unedited footage.
