That takes some balls!
gutter that martin got the 30 sec penality as he would have come second on saturday
hopefully he will finally get his win this year
its amazing to watch it, unbelievable how fast they go past you and they are getting dust in your eyes! lol
They are averaging over 130 mph doing this course for anyone that doesnt know and in a car will take about an 45 mins to an hour to get round in a car.

depends who you work for Kev
Lots of companies are UK based over here so we have to follow there bank holidays.
I use to work for a factory and they use to just shut the factory down for a week. Most builders and builders merchants close too. Lots of people take it as holiday so they dont have to sit in traffic for hours.
It doesnt actually affect me, just takes a little bit longer to get home if the course is closed. as i live and work outside the course
i think the population is about 90,000 over here, in TT week 70,000 visitors come over, just to put it in propective of how many people come over

yeah they do about 4 weeks before TT the petrol slowly increases so you dont really notice then after TT it goes down slightly
Petrol is higher over here all the time tho
I like bikes i could just never ride them, i know a few people that have been killed on bikes and i know about the gimps that race around the island not really caring about bikers.
Ill get some pics up later.
Was sat up windy corner yesterday and seen a bike come off, had a speed wobble and lost it, bang straight into a wall. the bikers was lucky it managed to loose most of the speed before he hit
So damaged bike, damaged pride but he stood up and was fine

330i, Alfa 147 & SP1
I'm usually a Marshall out there but had to miss it this year due to wedding coming up. Honestly videos don't do it justice, until you see them go past you don't realise how amazing it is. Honestly one of th best places in the world the IOM too. I'd happily live there just for the mountain section and those kippers
330i, Alfa 147 & SP1
Do it! Honestly the best 12 days I usually have out there. Watch racing, walk around paddock and then down the bushes beer tent to get stuck on the sticky floor lol
cheaper option is to go over for the Manx gp, no where near as busy and half the price. Not as good as the TT but still a great time and the mountains a little emptier for a play

Hmmm, not bad at all. It's exciting enough going over the mountain in a modified Type-R (chasing a supercharged DC-5) at 120-130mph but these guys are altogether something special.
The reason they walk funny when off the bikes is not because of their leathers... it's because they have testicles the size of ripened water melons.

182, SRT8, RS4, GT-R
6 Laps, quickest time wins. They set off at different times as in a time-trial.
I'll keep ya right ; ).
