sick, got to know the roads like the back of your hand. one wrong turn.. of lack of turning. not good.

i do a good clip in places. but i keep it well below the triple digits in the fastest parts.

but on the track have gotten over 160. but for a short distance.

them guys and (any) gals got balls of steel to do this.

Two other good ones are John McGuinness on an electric bike, and David Jeffries on a 1000 Suzuki. David talks us around the course. And the E Bike howls.

Who noticed the hair pin, or the tram tracks at the top of the mountain? Tracks are just before the over pass.

There's that big right handed curve about 35 seconds in, or so.

He's leaned way the hell over and grabs a handful of throttle like there's no tomorrow.

While I'm desirous of a sport bike, I lack the testicular fortitude to ride like that. Very, very impressive.

If you ever get the chance, watch "One Man's Island" DVD. It's chronicles the prep and race of a Canadian rider that does IoM TT for the first time.

That's one of my dream destinations...not to race but to watch
