incredible place.
Shame they threw in a few nasty crashes in that vid, as it was great apart from that. I don't understand why they always do that - IoM TT and GP
is dangerous, but I don't like revelling in the gore, not very respectful imo.

Not just threw them in but repeated them
Thers plenty gf crash vids if you want crashes
If you not seen it before his link to El Camino is good too, I've seen it first hand and it scared the poo out of me even at ground level

I have to agree. It was uncalled for. We've all heard the stories and know that it's dangerous. The wheelies and jumps were enough to get
me going!

I've been and thrashed a CBR1000 around the track. Awesome place, but very dangerous.
Would love to go back off peak to see more of the island, but it's sooooo expensive to get across!
Kindest Regards,

GLADIATORS.
These guys live life to the full. they sup it by the gallon.
70 years ago, they'd've been Battle of Britain pilots.
Admire, respect and envy them, but do not pity them. They are heroes.

It's much cheaper off-peak. The Steam Racket fleece people during the TT.

Been going on and off since the early 70's and certainly seen some changes in speeds and lines round corners, amazing how much tyre technology
has made these speeds possible, Best day is Mad Sunday over the Mountain no matter how fast some-one thinks they are there's always some-one
faster. the antics on Douglas prom of a night is amazing.
ReMan you're probably too late most places are booked already, one mate who's been going for close on 40 years at the same hotel books for
next year when he checks out
