"That's a man's corner"...Isle of Mann claims two more

Recommended Posts

"Coroner John Needham returned a verdict of death by misadventure." That makes 242 riders killed on this 37 mile race course held since 1907(except for 6 years during WWII).

Going to watch this race is on the top of my bucket list - watch this insane video and check the pictures in the article, these guys are super humans.

My wife said she would like to go check it out, what a good woman! She didn't say anything about me going, though.

Sometimes I look at this and think, "This isn't motorcycle riding, or anything I've ever done before...this is a daredevil sport much like Evel Knievel doing what 99.9999998% of the motorcycling community should/would never do at those speeds."

Super human racing right there. These guys are unbelievable
