I've been watching it too, am I right to believe that the fastest bike averaged 127 mph on the circuit?

yup, David Jeffries, fat Yorkshire tw*t, managed an average speed of 127mph. The man must have b*llocks the size of watermelons.

Been there seen it, done it and got the T Shirt - Top Week

I've just got back in from Liverpool. I did about 1200 miles total on my VTR1000 including 9 runs across the mountain on Mad Sunday

If you're thinking of going next year book early - we booked for 2003 before we went to this years event!

Cheers,

Ian.

Cool

I was there! Saw the go peds fine outside bushys beer tent. Great loops on them, I have to say. As for mad sunday, you have to be mad to do 9 laps in that weather. My R1 stayed in bed! Have to say though, DJ is the man, even if he rides a suzuki.

Hi guys,
yep just got back on thursday from the IOM TT races.
The weather was fantastic,can you believe i got sunburnt!!

Jefferies is the main man now,with some storming times,its a sad shame there is no more Joey Dunlop ,he was the king of the TT races

Saw the go-peds(total nutters!)some good tricks and mental backflips.
I was watching it from outside Jeffersons bar near the Ferry terminal.Our friend was doing the Stunt show(Neil Porter),because he knows where we stand he did a few burnouts in front of us for the benifit of the camcorder
What has let the TT down is the way the police shut off the road outside bushys.It was the same show every night,Those bloody bobsleigh things and that daft stilt show
It was better a few years ago when the road was open earlier for amature bikers to do some mad stunts(and the occassional naked woman on rollerblades)

All in all a great time was had by me and my friends,but that campsite was very noisy ,we got about 2hours kip everynight
But it was TT so what the hell.

Duncan
