i agree with TDJ
its the overtaking riders fault , and the camera bike.
the overtaking rider should get out get in.
the camera bike rider, i don’t think he see the two bikes between the cars probably hidden from his vision by the first car/van thing, it looks like that surprised him so he braked and couldn’t move back in, he should have just got past using the bikes power really.
you have to remember this was on the IOM
IOM or not doesn’t excuse stupidity.
Did the guy on the white bike think that he was the only one on the mountain, what if the car had pulled out to overtake someone?
Driving around like you are the only person who exists is stupid, whether it is on London Roads, the Mountain or the Track.
TDJ has been over there more than me or you, and i still agree with him.
I’m hoping to take the car next time I go over there, no matter how fast you go round the mountain, there’s always a rossi wannabe with something to prove cutting you up
The other option which I do is to set the alarm for 5am and get a couple of laps in while most are still sleeping off the beer.
Or what I did … head down the other end of the Island where nobody is and cut loose on the quiet roads .
It looks as if the car stops to let a pedestrian cross, and then the biker follows suit before the other chap collects him.
The overtaking biker probably did look in their mirrors but didn’t see anything as the chap behind was travelling so fast. As for who was at fault, the biker who collected everyone was going for a gap between the car and the camera bike flat out, so I suppose he should take some of the responsibility. The overtaking biker could have been more aware of his surroundings.
