Irish road racing

F*ck - that’s the Isle of man right? - description said Ireland.

Pretty sure that’s the NW200 not the Isle of Man

Looks like Ireland

mixture of NW200, Ulster, I think IOM to.

Looks like a Jetstream rideout.

Balls of steel those guys.

I’ve bundles of respect for these lads. I met Micky Dunlop at the bike show and he was mega!

Cheers - really enjoyed watching that. :slight_smile:

How come all the big road racing - IOM / Ulster / NW200 - are all in the NW - nothing in the SE of England? We’ve got plenty of rural roads too.

BL

It would never, ever, be allowed in England. Far too dangerous.

The only remaining ‘race’ event on public roads in England - the Brighton speed trials on that road right along the seafront - has now been cancelled this year because of the tragic death last year and ongoing inquest. As it has been cancelled this year, I very much doubt it will be allowed next year. Or ever.

Shame though… Imagine the road racers going round Richmond Park!!!

Words aren’t enough to describe the TT. Astonishing and awe inspiring riding.

Nah, nothing on the Taffyring :smiley:

Bonkers the lot of them though :w00t:

Not unless Wee Eck has broadened his horizons & has marshalled his SNP forces to sweep south & annex Scarborough! :w00t:

Road racing in the SE not a chance … Like when there was rumours of an F1 race in London , Monaco stylee … you just knew that was never gonna happen . TT is a great spectacle and a fine tradition but OOMMGG the costs , the costs , the COSSTTSSS . Its not a budget holiday thats for sure . Me on my own in the Isle for 10 days cost twice as much as a family of four in a beachside 5 star apartment with its own private pool and hot and cold running service in Portugal .

OOOOHH didn’t know about that Pat! I wanna go see it!!!
