Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.
There are always casualties It's why they are the bravest men in sport They know the risks They accept them They take responsibility for their actions Roll models all right
Been watching the build up all week its been on after The Motorbike Show on ITV4 Henry Cole did 3 specials, I saw the Triumph and the Ducati one last night, that Ducati Panigale V4 is a thing of beauty, its a gorgeous motorcycle, although I had a Honda VFR and that's got a V4 engine and wasn't fussed on that V4 engine, but the Panigale V4 engine is a different beast all together, that said I'd still rather an Inline 4, they sound so sweet.

That guy from Kent with the triumph collection Wow !! he's got some money's worth there. Also , these TT racers - you see them getting interviewed afterwards and they are so humble as if what they are doing is nothing extraordinary . Yet we all know they are supermen compared to the average joe Public.

I’ve met a few n the island when I’ve been. It ain’t like the cosseted arrogant F1 boys. All have time for the fans and are down to earth The late great Joey Dunlop was so placid and unaffected by it all. His death remains sports saddest moment for me. His funeral was massive and both sides loved him .

Absolutely, they're not human they are a total different breed from your track racer there's a reason you don't the top track guys racing in the TT, if TT lads make the slightest of mistakes and its likely to be game over, hell of a risk to take.
Do they go round and round on a track or just whiz pass you as you stand on a road whichever sounds like a load of noise, boring repetitive and worse of all highly dangerous.

Those who race sidecars are the same.

Michael Dunlop is a wonderful rider, he spoke about the families loss of his Uncle Joey his Father Robert and his Brother William in Motorcycling tragedies, although none lost their lives at the TT.

Some of the episodes not all they were screened after The Motorbike Show, think there are 3 or 4 episodes, they're on my list of must watch programs, only seen two of the Motorbike shows specials, saw the Triumph and the Ducati ones, excellent viewing for those with an interest in motorcycling of course.

Bravest men in sport you say, so why are they any braver than other sportsman who participate in other extreme and dangerous sports
Why are you being so confrontational and on a thread that you clearly have no interest in?
I'll help OHL out, not that he needs me to, by saying that those riders are amongst the bravest sports people in sport, how's that?
Average speeds around the TT course are 130mph +, through built up areas, thats extremely brave to me
He s a jerk basically. Sees the username and jumps Make a mistake on a GPcircuit and you d be ok. Make error on IOM and the walls,gates,Poles ,postboxes ,kerbstones will take you out .no going back. No sport is riskier . None

I remember last years meet where two sidecar racers were killed after losing control of their vehicle after hitting a patch of oil that hadn't been cleaned after a previous accident, absolutely tragic.
