Don't know if any of you guy's like bikes , regardless I think this is THE
most hardcore dangerous sport bar none . TT racing is a very British affair
for those who have never seen this enjoy .

Unfortunately ever year this race has fatalities , the dude talking and riding
this lap crashed last year and was saved by a guardian angel !
 
Do you have pictures of this "guardian angel"? I've never seen one but people tell me they're pretty cool guys, er, save people and doesn't afraid of anything. ;)

Best race ever. I don't know how they manage to turn in such impressive times with their huge brass balls getting in the way. Even the women are only 3-4 mph slower. Crazy to see people like Rossi and Hayden take a lap around it and balk at really riding it. There was a RRW article where one of the WSB guys went out to really compete one year. Came back talking about a new found respect for the guys that ride this yearly. There's some serious street terrain to cope with. You see some crazy tank slappers from races in 80's - early 90's.

No way Rossi is going to risk it :D he has the skills with a bit of practice ,
but the BALLS that's a different story ! can you imagine his insurance companies reaction to it . :yow:
 
Yeah base jumping is up there , for me still not as skilled as TT racing .
I reckon ave joe has a better chance doing a base jump than 200mph at
the Isle of Man . Don't get me wrong there are plenty of other situations I would not like to quantum leap into too .
 
I have even more scary. 15/20 years ago, there was a man riding a bike in the parisian "peripherique" (the highway that does a circle around Paris, I don't know how you call them in english).

He was known because he is all black with no identification, and no police car or bike could catch him cause he was too fast.

And one day they recorded a 1st person view of him doing the full circle in a few minutes, where in cars it would need hours when it's crowded. And believe me, you wouldn't like being on that bike during that ride. It's stupid to do such a thing on a public highway, but the video is worth checking. It's pretty old school too :

That's Ghost Rider/Black Prince. He releases videos of racing from one side of Paris to the other or likewise in London. He's certifiable.
I had a vid at one time of him riding the white line at 280kph on a 2 lane road right between 2 oncoming semi's. Insane.
There's a european Cannonball they do on bikes that ends up looking a lot like this.

In that vein I'd call the guys that do the Paris->Dakar or Baja 1000 on bike nuts too. Checkout "Dust to Glory" on netflix.
