Nah ! theats not crazy !!! you wan to see the irish road racers. Now thay are crazy. The isle of man is like a freeway (?) compared to Irish road racing...

Look fopr the Skerries (Scarey!!!) the Ulster GP ( Fastest road race in the world - 130mph average lap time) or the Northwest 200.... Now thats crazy !

I have been to the IOM many times  - Its fantastic. 90,000 bikers on an island. Lets party !. Its a must do before you die !

Those guys still have some serious hardware behind the tank.  It blows my mind how much control they have and how easy they make it look.

I bet it would be amazing to watch.  You guys are lucky to be so close... anyone up for a "road trip"?

Hi Guys !

Looks like we will be "doing" the Manx GP this year instead of the TT..

Same circuit but amateur racers.. Less police presence on the roads between races, and lots of old fella's on classic nortons/Triumphs etc.

Still a great place to be.

Have you seen the onbike over the 13 mile mountain section?
This part is one way on the Sunday between practice and race weeks.
No speed limit !

This is why so many riders make the trip to the IOM !

Sounds like this would be right up Tom's Alley Wink

Cool video.  Were you doing the taping for that one?

Yep. Thats me riding the Gixer  Cool

My most recent is from Oulton Park Can anyone remember the tracnsatlantic challenge races from the 80's Schwantz, Lawson, Rainey against brit riders ... Not sure if it was covered in the USA at the time, but was a big easter meeting run on several circuits over the long weekend.
Oulton Park was one of the circuits that series visited. Its used for the Brit Superbike Series these days. One of our 'classic' circuits and my favorite !
 

My best effort so far  Grin

I'm liking putting these onbike vids together with proper intro's and titles! look out Hollywood  Roll Eyes
