That was just about perfect. The images used really give a tiny glimpse of how insane that race is.
And that music. I was ready to hate it during the intro but suddenly it was perfect. Chef kiss!

When telephone poles look like a picket fence.

That has to be the purest form of road racing that exists today if you ask me. Also the most dangerous too.

If you are a motorcycle enthusiast you owe it to yourself to attend either the TT or the Manx once in your life. It's simple amazing.

I have done many interesting things in my life - this is just different and special.

This is Guy Martin. He used to have a real southern drawl. Then he ran a couple of hot laps.

These guys are not wired up like the rest of us!
They don't race for money as most just have normal day jobs so they race to feel alive

I worked with a lad that raced an RC30 at the IOM. He was a welder at the military vehicle factory I worked at in the UK. I asked him how he got to know the track and he said he drove around the track once a month for a whole weekend. Lap after lap. Then when he was welding the vehicles he just thought about gears and corners. Gears and corner day after day.
