2004 I.o.m. T.t.
Anyone watching the TT highlights on SPEED?
Now that's *real* roadracing! Before I peg it, I want to go to TT week. Maybe some of our UK friends who have been, can post their experiences. (And it was good to know "Milky" Quale is fully recovered from his horrific crash of 2 years ago.)

You know those guys are really cookin' when the tv-chopper is doing ~100knots and some bike catches and blows by it in just a few seconds - on public roads no less.. bike racing is soooo fun to watch

Great to watch, and those guys have no equal in the "stones" department. The mortality rate is way too high though. Already 3 competitors dead this year.
