It looks like the rider on the silver #8 bike got a full suspension and gonad compression, landing that wheelie after coming over the rise. Great video!

And speaking of gonads, the guys running the sidecar rigs are packing big time.

Whoa, I just checked out the stills. That's #8...he got compressed and toasted. I hope he bailed before it got bad. What happened?

I just googled it, and I'm glad to hear he had a full recovery.

 

The first segment is tonight.

 

Dat bike go boom pretty. That thing using napalm for fuel?!?!?!

 

Yep its on at 6pm and 9pm PDT!

 

Last week was practice. First race is on tonight a 6pm and 9pm PDT.

 

I can't figure out why the most legendary road race in all of motorcycling doesn't get better, or should I say wider, coverage. I'm sure that it does in Great Britain.

Here in the USA, TV viewers would rather watch "Wipeout" or "The Real Housewives of...whatever".

 

Thanks, 8541Hawk ! ! After watching that, Now i know how bad my form, and riding skills are.. Ha ha unbelievable to watch video /then compare - speeds over longer distances, track surface at Indy. THRILLs the Blood......

 

Nope, it gets very little coverage on tv neither does the NW200 or the Ulster Grand Prix.

It seems only the grand prix races are seen worthy of any coverage.

Oh should have explained, the Ulster GP isn't a grand prix Look guys nothing is straightforward in Ireland!!
