      Absolutely what you just said!! It’s brilliant, and on par with that ‘Drive To Survive’. (And it’s nice to see how the TT lads are still human, and not corporate robots!)
      Excellent work.

    The starter has so much responsibility, he will be the last person to touch the riders with his tap on the shoulder to send them off, and unfortunately it will be the last contact for some. Ten seconds, tap on the shoulder then hurtling down Glencrutchry Road like a missle, wonderful stuff indeed.

  • @vanduc996
    @vanduc996 Год назад +4

    It's the purity of the TT of just rider, road , and machine that I find so appealing.
    It's the same for me as a rider, track days are fun but it just doesn't compare to when it's just me, my trusty ol' 996 and a fantastic empty road. Even if that road isn't quite as good as what the TT course would be!

    I went to the TT in 2014 - from NZ - been a dream since the old dude next door would give me his bike mags with black leathers and pudding basin helmets - 40 years later I got there. There is a 'magic' there - the energy you feel, that power just in the air is not just bikes and people, It was a magical place long before the TT . manx cats, 6 horned sheep, shire horses pulling the trams - the ravens! even the critters were 'different' . .

    Going out No 1 or No 20 on the road isn't the issue for me. It's just going out and going full bore on the TT circuit.
    I wouldn't mind doing a leisurely lap, well within my limits, but that'd probably take me at least 40 mins per lap .
    So respect to those who can do it anywhere sub 25 mins , let alone the 16 mins 42 seconds that Hicky has done !

    8:16 to 8:30 perfect picture. I don't know where in this video but, WHEN you're in a turn and you see a straight line between the turns ahead of you, you pin it, and your front end rises up you've already straightened for the most part and you gas forward. It's just you and the machine and at a moment like that, you're not letting anything stop you.
