Isle of Man TT 2012
 
I don't see a thread already here, so I guess I will start one.

Mark Miller did well in the TT Zero race, he's a rider from my local area. :)

History is made in the 2012 SES TT Zero - The official Isle of Man TT website

Those guys are absolutley nuts!! That has got to be the most exciting/dangerous form of Bike riding around.

And the sidecar guys take it to another level again.

And a 20 minute lap. I'd be lost after the first minute.

with all three breaking the prestigious 100mph mark, which was first achieved by a conventional bike by Scotsman Bob McIntyre in 1957.

These guys are ballsy, but Bob McIntyre is steer nuts.

That doesn't seem possible, does it? Can you even comprehend the differences between the machines? I was thinking that had to be wrong. What kind of a beast bike was McIntyre riding?

Theres a great video ( iforget who the rider is) he has a cam on the bike and he talks you through a full lap, When he accelerates, brakes, what gear hes in. Pretty cool. have to find it.
