Amazing how unstable the bikes are coming off a jump. Kinda scary bike ride.

And that Ladies and Gentlemen, is why real racers wear leather, not denim.

The Isle of Man TT races are one of the oldest annual motorcycle events in the world. The Isle of Man is one of the British Channel Islands, off the coast of southern England.

It is the most exciting race in motor sports. It's the one event that I make sure to watch.

No Jim, it's not one of the Channel Isles, it's half way between England & Ireland in the Irish Sea. My uncle used to race there many years ago. I havent seen the video yet, bu I imagine they'll show the flint wall that the racers miss by inches. Even when the races are not on, it's the only part of Britain where there is NO speed limit outside the towns!


I don't believe in astrology. I am a Gemini and
we're very skeptical.
