 Isle of Man TT (or other bike racing)One of the few sports I am actually enthusiastic about is bike racing- especially the TT! In my books, it's the best track in the world- no safety barriers, 130mph average laps and you get to go over a mountain, and around the entire Isle of Man in one race. It's considered the most dangerous track in the world, and the TT lasts for a week- you have loads of bike races, you know, superbikes, sidecarts and all that, and then one day of the week, any old Billy with a motorbike can race around the track and somebody usually manages to kill themselves, though the professional riders are as hard as nails. And now for your enjoyment, a couple of the best TT crashes ever! (PS. they actually survived theses...)

Re: Isle of Man TT (or other bike racing) You got that right. Women have won podiums before, but no woman has ever come first, and I keep thinking about how amazing that would be. Then again, I'm not too keen on the idea of possibly dying... still looks like a rush though.

It's a 900cc Honda I believe. Just to get an idea of the speed, this is a video of a dancing marshall! Yay! Also, the one that goes past him is a sidecar- the slowest type of machine in the race, and the speed is still amazing  _________________ . . . . . .
