  1. That's why I was no good at racing solo.........I was always stopping..........

    Sidecar was different...........I kept my eyes shut most of the time and listened / knew the circuit by feel......
     
  2. made up load of froth……..who would believe that..:rolleyes: and push poor skill no 2 bike…….what was wrong with passing on the offside….:upyeah:
     
  3. It was his rear braking that put him on the inside. It stepped the bike out, and he could have applied more front than that surely.

    Lol armchair critic who fell off at 2mph. Me.
     
  4. It was Andyb's fault
     
  5. i blame his attitude …..communicating like that...
     
  6. I thought I recognised him in the vid.........:wink:
     
  7. Albeit a court may say that they were all travelling too fast in inclement weather; perhaps a half decent barrister could ask the Plod if they had carried out a risk assessment for the speed trap in inclement weather.........

    ..........after all, they may well have been speeding in dangerous conditions, but the accident wouldn't have happened without the speed trap (not at that point on the road, anyway)......

  8. which bit of it wasn't real it was a set up didn't you read or understand?
     
  9. Of course I understood someone posted that............

    I'm just doing the road safety / advocacy bit...........

    But someone has got unsettled 'cos it's been removed.......

  10. OK, the full video's here :wink: It was a guy called Stu Peters who was making a video. He asked the IOM Plod to help out, then forgot how to stop a bike in a hurry!

     
  11. Threads merged :smile:
     
  12. Sorry lads never saw the first thread!

  13. that bit of the course is de-restricted though so why spoof a speed stop up there in the fog instead of down off the mountain between the Creg and Signpost (for example) where it wont be foggy and there is a speed limit?
     
  14. Yeah, but the funny thing is, the guys who hits the first rider is the one who set it up! Work that one out.....
