ManxTaxPayer Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 May it be possible to remove the Riders number untill the press release please. I don't see why that's necessary, the crew were named on the wireless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spook Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 How many more lives must be destroyed before this lunatic carnage is banned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 How many more lives must be destroyed before this lunatic carnage is banned? I recall David Jefferies being interviewed on the start line one TT. He said that every single rider is fully aware of the risks involved and all know that they may be seriously injured or even worse on the course. Not a single person racing off down Bray Hill has been forced to do it - they have decided to do it themselves. That was the year that David Jefferies died at Crosby after crashing.

I take it you have never given a death message to friends, family etc, let alone having to deal with the aftermath, selfish outlook if you ask me.
