    As an experience biker , watching things like this make me realise I am actually useless on a bike as I would be dead within 30 seconds if I attempted even half of those speeds around those streets .

    Riders do race each other in the TT. They start in 10 second intervals so catching up to other riders happens all the time. Get a corner wrong, the guy behind can be right on you. There is an epic back and forth between Dunlop and Martin that highlights this.

    Hi Joel, the Manx is run to the same format as the TT, they are sent off at ten second intervals. So were you see three riders together, one of them has made up ten and twenty seconds on the other two. At the TT you can see up to four riders close together sometimes. If you type in "Peter Hickman, fastest lap" you can have a POV of the fastest lap ever around the course.

    With these types of videos, I watch with "if that was me" in the back of my mind.
    WELL.
    Firstly, there's no way I would ride a motorbike at those speeds on a straight track, let alone the narrow, wall-lined roads of the Isle of Man.
    Secondly, if the front wheel DID slide like that, I would put on the brakes, park up, ditch the bike and walk back to my B&B, to change my underwear and go the f*ck home for a cup of tea and cuddle from my family!

    You're on board a kawasaki zx6r. The bikes are all very different in their strengths and weaknesses. Exactly the same as the riders and then there is the small matter of setting the bike up perfectly for the conditions. They compete for the racing line. Skill levels are off the charts.

    the first segment of this video where the high power bikes are speeding fast through wooded areas with there engines screaming reminded me of the scene from star wars return of the jedi. the speeder bikes scene as the riders go fast through forest at high speed, close to each other same as the power bides to on the TT track. is that just me or did anyone else think that.

    This is actually not the TT. The Tourist Trophy on the Isle of Man is a race against time and not against other riders. I've just started the video, so I don't know what race it is yet, but it's more than certain that it's not the TT. Regarding your reactions, instead of Peter's "simple" lap, you should see the video of his lap record. Peter holds the record for the fastest race lap ever done at an average speed of more than 135 mph. He posted the onboard video of this ride and trust me... It's very, very different from what you've already seen and absolutely worth watching.

  • @briancooper562
    @briancooper562 13 днів тому

    The Manx Grand Prix is the same as the TT except the riders cannot have won a TT and there are no sidecars.. And the races are usually shorter by a lap or two. You do get riders passing in both events but that is because some people have a 'race face' and go quicker in the race then in training.. Running just after is a series of festival race event which includes past riders and machines from TT like events from over the world. Do not worry about the speed you could train for it if you wanted? And you need the ability to concentrate for up to 2 hours solid.

    Even watching this is so tense. Especially when another biker is blocking the view of the "horizon" or they pass eachother, I'm just hoping they are conscious of their surroundings (as we see in F1, that's not always the case with racers).

    I suppose you could over time a custom yourself to those high speeds by start riding that lap by going within speed that's in your comfort zone and then with training go faster and faster east time until you feel ok with those type of high speeds. i would imagine it takes lots of training to be able to do that. on that track at those deadly speeds. one mistake and your gone.
