Isle of Man

Y’all watching this? Never watched this race until this year. Love the staging style like the Tour de France. Motorcycles with sidecars at 120mph, single bikes at 180+. Just a ****** race format and intense competition not so much with side by side competition but with each turn a tenth of a second matters. Engine fail at the worst possible moment. It’s endurance and sprinting speed and just a crazy awesome event Check it out!

Tuned in. I love the peaks in the road and watching them catch air at a 150 mph.

I believe someone was killed during the racing this year.
Reminds me of the reasons why I didn't renew my motorcycle endorsements! Crazy.

I think there have been 256 killed in the race. This is a course that if you crash you die!

2 KIA this year.

I'd love to go to the IOM for the TT one year. It is amazing just watching the videos on YouTube. Those guys have nerves of steel.

There is loss of Life every year at the Isle. We have lost some great people there that were giving it there all. Makes me miss Motorcycle Roadracing.

There have been over 270 recorded competitor deaths in the Isle of Man since 1910 in official races or practices since its inaugural race in 1907.
Recent history shows that two competitors have perished so far this year, adding to three in 2017 and five in 2016.

I have been watching it for quite some time now. Very exciting and yes these guys have &@!!$ that should be delivered in a dump truck. Watching last night with my 6 year old grandson. All he kept saying was "whats tripping me out is how fast they make the turns". Good stuff to watch.

I won't miss it...most exciting motor sports event you can tune into.
