Same thing happens at the North Wales TT frequently on sunny weekends and they are not even professionals

It's unbelievable that it still goes on with the death rate that it has.
I love road racing but to AVERAGE a speed OVER 130mph on each lap of a 30 mile course, of roads, that includes a hairpin!, is truely mental.
I don't know of any other motorbike race which has pit stops. That in itself makes it fantastic. Even better when the commentator interviews the rider as the bike gets a new back tyre and a tank of fuel.

I was watching the lap time splits on the TT live website yesterday.
Hutchinson went from the start to Ballaugh bridge in 7 mins 28 seconds.
That is for 17.1 miles. Average of just over 143mph and all from a standing start on cold tyres Went through the speed trap on Sulby straight at just under 190mph.
Amazing

They are indeed crazy men

Hutchinson did something truly amazing this year winning all 5 races, unbelievable

I've been over there a few times and I would recommend it to everyone, it's an awesome spectacle and some great nights out as well

I've been watching the highlights on ITV4. The slo-mo shots are awesome - they show how hard the bikes and riders work and the movement of the suspension and tyres in minute detail. Unbelievable
