keyboarder Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I went to Peel yesterday via the main route and I have to say that what with all the freshly painted kerbs, and the newly erected crash barriers, it all looks rather impressive. I mean it's like a real racing circuit and that. I actually got a feeling as to how alluring it must be for motorcycle racers to be able to hammer super fast machines around roads that have a huge efficient organisation behind them to ensure that they are clear of obstacles or even oncoming traffic. There can't be many experiences to compare what that must be like. Hey, for a while there i was even picturing what I imagined to be a racing line, lol,lol...... (Had to nip that in the bud...; )) I have glimpsed what the TT is, and have respect.............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebees Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Mrbees says I'm not allowed a motorbike, I wouldn't want to race it or go too fast or anything mad but they look quite nice and are handy for nipping in and out of traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you can't eliminate the most dangerous part of motorcycling which is car drivers. Not dissing car drivers either (I am one of them!) but there are some dumbasses that can't seem to figure out junctions and that little thing called "looking" before pulling out.

Driving past Kewaige school t'other morning through the 20mph zone and I was overtaken by 3 bikers (not cars you'll note). However only one of them was doing about 50 so that's ok.

Why don't you get a skateboard or a segway, or even one of those engine powered skooters. You'd look cool on one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Jefferies quote: `Now coming through here gives you the illusion of speed, its a little village you do about 150mph' lol, 150mph is slow according to Mr Jefferies. Man of steel!
