Holy Cow! That's amazing! Incredible how he so smoothly carves through those narrow roads.

PS - if you can hook up your laptop to your big screen TV this is one time to do it, it is incredible on a 46" screen!

I wouldn't call that dude a cameraman - more like a rider with a camera on his bike.

G'day Guys and Girls

That reminds me of the Joey Dunlop video.

We where all at a mates place sitting around his bar, having had a beer or 3 too many. Leigh sticks the tape in and we all enjoyed the video, except Don. Seemed he lent too far into a corner, fell off the bar stool and landed on his butt.

So every time after that we made him sit in a chair.

Good video that and this one is the same (good)

Thanks for the link. Great to see something like this when it is -5C outside.

"HDTheatre" showed several one hour segments of IOM TT this past year and it had some similar footage. Many times Cathy would see me sitting on the couch- leaning with the riders into the corners.

Easy to see why Paul Edlington goes back there year after year.

Frank was fine - it was one of his mates that went rubber side up Very Happy

From the looks of Frank's avatar, his helmet isn't going to get in the way of anti dehydration measures, also known as fourex, or barbed wire beer (XXXX) in his part of the world.

Ok that is way way cool.

Now, WTH do I feel so old & slow?

Oh yeah, cause I am.

Truly inspiring and humbling at the same time, least for me it was. such as it is, those days will never dawn for me again.

At least I can still ride my ride and I can always admire & observe truly fearless talent such as that.

I can not drink "barded wire" Do you know Queenslanders put XXXX on the cans/bottles, thats because they can't spell BEER.

give me a good Tooheys Extra Dry any day or may some of Tooheys 5 Seed Cider.

Glad the rain has finally stopped.
