Save it using file save page as... ta da!
Anyways I was freakin hooked! I definitely couldn't hang with those guys. It's amazing how much courage you have to have that a squirrel woudln't run out or a deer or some kid when you're going that fast on such small roadways.

It's a closed curcuit.
They close the streets near the route for 2 weeks. They prep the route the week before fixing all "hazardous" conditoins. Take down signs, put up haybails, and arrows. It's the same racers for the most part that run every year so they know it like the back of their hands. If you like Isle watch the South African TT or any other TT race. Same riders different scenery. I haven't scene that curcuit in a while but back in the day they race along the coast.
