“There is a grey blur, and a green blur. I try to stay on the grey one…” - Joey Dunlop

[@liljaeger2k]

He's brother also died in this race. And they're son's are also rocking champion of isle of man TT. Racing in their blood man 😵‍💫

[@YautjaPrime-gw1on]

​@@liljaeger2k Sadly William Dunlop lost his life at a race event in Ireland (The Skerries) in 2018. Only Michael Dunlop, his brother, is still competing.

[@liljaeger2k]

@@YautjaPrime-gw1on hope to see him retire from this game alive. God takes care of him and rip those souls.

Dunlop. Most fearless bikers in the world. Poetry in motion and it's fast!!

[@marliesboom2737]

Never saw the TT races of the Isle of Man myself. This reaction is in honor of 2 of the nicest Manx people I ever met. Marjorie and Jack Ward from Lower Foxdale. They were marshalls during the races for the most years of their life. Marjorie once got badly hurt at an older age being a marshall. Took her a long time to recover. The love for the race remained. I met them on a cruise along the Norwegian coast and we became Friends. When I went to their beautiful Isle to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary with them, instead of a present for themselves they favoured a money gift, because they were trying to raise as much money as possible to support the Helicopter Rescueteam of the TT races with 🥰⭐⭐🇮🇲 They are dead now, still love and miss them 💕.

[@trikky2.2]

Total respect, and thank you for sharing. Although I was a biker I never got to the TT but have so much respect for the volunteers ( and paid ) that helped to keep it safe and support the injured ( and worse ).

This is great, listening to heroes with balls big enough to compete in the race. Americans can't even play rugby without body armour. Much respect to the UK grit and determination.

[@stuartfaulds1580]

The Riders in the TT don't do it for the prize, they do it to test themselves against the track. One racer said there's a green blur and a grey blur, you try to stay on the grey blur. I've also seen one comment that the commenter stated that they thought the TT was the closest to Star Wars Pod Racing you can get to on Earth. I chuckled at one reactor who commented that they thought that the Star Wars Pod Racing was based on the TT Race. Edit: The TT price is a pittance compared to the other races. Heh try having a shufty at the Sidecar races, whilst not as fast they are even more insane.

[@neilcorbett5353]

Quote from the great Joey Dunlop RIP

[@romystumpy1197]

Yes I totally get it,

[@coot1925]

I'm pleased to see a like minded biker. I've been riding for over 35 years and never had an accident. People make the mistake of treating a bike like it's a toy, they are to the ones who end up in a wheelchair or worse. I took my Kawasaki 750 around Brands Hatch and my butt was chewing the seat the whole time. My sense of self preservation outweighs my need for adrenaline rushes. Keep safe my friend ✌️♥️🇬🇧

[@ronmullard5718]

all my serious accidents were not my fault they were caused by car drivers....but I've got to nearly 74 in one piece (had numerous broken bones)wouldn't change it at all...and sadly did loose some mates on the way....but that's life ....when your time is up.....your time is up...

Have property at the 11th milestone of the TT (currently run by my brother). Connor is a true local hero and the TT fortnight is a magical place for anybody who likes their bikes! It is a beautiful island with plenty more going on than just the bikes, and we have good business for the summer season. Guy Martin was glimpsed earlier on - and someone well worth looking more into - his speed attempt series, the Lancaster and the battle of Britain Spitfire pilot ones in particular.

[@Linda-hs1lk]

In 2017 a Dutch racer died. He was a member of the team the son of my neighbour is also a member of. I remember when it happened because my neighbour was very upset. She knew him well.

[@ottonormal3354]

The TT is the last real bastion for men to live on the edge. I admire all men who dare to take on a TT race! As the saying goes, the TT exists, cause even Astronauts need heroes. And RIP Doc!

[@debblackwell2750]

And women.

[@dw1809]

I’ve seen that Connor Cummings crash a few times. But this I noticed he actually bounced over that dry stone wall and in doing so that saved his life.

[@DaveyL1954]

Guy Martin is a legend on the TT circuit. His crashes were legendary. Fortunately he's not racing anymore, but he does do the most brilliant tv programmes about engineering. And best of all, he owns a Roll Royce Merlin engine, the sort that were used on Lancaster Bombers and Spitfires. Check out anything by Guy Martin. He's photo'd at 7' 13".

[@ronmullard5718]

Guy still doing Irish road races....on and off ...

[@goatbrother8718]

Guy Martin had a crash the same year, his bike went up in flames. He talks about it in the documentary Closer to the edge.

Guy and Pete live near me Peter work shop is like 400 meters away from my house

[@taxus750]

I went to the IoM TT in 1985: that's a long time ago now but I have never forgotten it. I did the overnight ferry from Heysham to Douglas with a thousand or three others, decks awash with piss and vomit and salt water and diesel. Riders and pillions came from all four corners of the planet, mostly British (like me ) and German and French and Dutch and Spanish and Russian, and I heard American and Australian and all kinds of accents and languages. I did "Mad Sunday", a sort of free-for-all for anyone who had a bike (I gather it's much less silly nowadays). All in all, if you love riding bikes and you've been to MotoGP events and want something a bit less tame, save up and GO. You will never, ever, forget the experience.

[@tezfitz7863]

Been a few times and it’s a lot scarier when you see it live absolutely unbelievable courage these guys have

[@michaeltaylor8835]

[@Puzzoozoo]

Out of all the American bike racers past and present, Dave Roper is currently the only American to win a TT Race using conventional internal combustion engine power; the Historic TT of 1984. Riding a G50 Matchless he headed home the field in the only time this class of race has been run. Dave has also finished runner-up twice in the Senior Classic Manx Grand Prix, in 1988 and 1990.

[@ronmullard5718]

these guys are a different breed and mindset...once it's in you blood you are hooked....as a spectator only in the flesh can you appreciate their dedication and talent...

Loved your take on this Crazy race. Went there as a 9 year old and it scared me to death. 1st watched it coming down to Creg na bar. 180mph bikes. Less than a few feet away from the side of the road! Breath taking. Much respect to those guys going for it. We actually went to IOM for a stag do and had a pint (or two)in all 15 pubs on the circuit! Gorgeous place, Scary racing!

The crash compilation from the TT is pretty wicked.

[@stephenhoward4191]

a word of advice , watch guy , proper, a unique human

[@alisoncauser2955]

The prize money is a pittance, this race is run for the legendary staus of being the fattest. I've been a spectator for several years. My great grandparents were born and bred in port St Mary on the southern coast. Another good one to watch is the world's deadliest motorcycle race- the TT.

[@TimberwolfC14]

I've been able to ride bikes for over 40 years without fortunately causing too much damage to the old body, but the riders in the TT are totally in a class of their own. If I was ever able to meet a rider who hammered their rear end around the TT Race circuit I wouldn't be ashamed to kneel at their feet and kiss their boots. One of riders said ' On the track there's a wide green blur on the right a narrower gray blur in the center and another wide green on the left the idea is to stay on the narrow gray bit".

[@aardbei07]

the anthem of the tt is from WHITIH TEMPTATION,FASTER AND FASTER 😎 great song for the isle of man TT

[@greggwilliamson]

If you notice, anytime you see a shot from the chopper on a straight, the bikes are pulling away. They can outrun the damn helicopter by about 50 mph. On some longer straights the bikes can top 200 mph. The 130 figure they give is the average. There are curves they slow down to 30 or 40 mph. You should check out the "Sidecar TT". NOT ME!!!!

[@Speedy00]

Yea motorcycle racers are just... A different breed. I mean i am lightyears away from the skill and bravery these guys put on the plate but i broke a few bones during my "career" of hobbyracing and i still do it. It's just an addiction.

[@andysutton1]

He needs to watch the Joey Dunlop lap on the bike that's scary

[@suzannebaxter2888]

I go to the Isle of man TT races every single year missed two only and that was because of the pandemic. It is beyond anything you will ever see. The ultimate ride MAN ROAD BIKE there's nothing like it. Until you get to the sidecar races and if you think the single riders are nuts you haven't seen this The smells it has been going for a very long time and sadly we had deaths this year. The Isle of Man TT, the deadliest race on Earth it started way back in 1907, the Isle of Man TT (originally Tourist Trophy - a test for “touring” motorcycles) runs on a unique 37.73 mile Mountain Course. The course consists of public roads specially closed for the event. The TT is always held in the last week of May and the first week of June. It takes balls to do this but WOMEN do it also. Joey Dunlop is my all time favourite rider he had 26 wins until his death in 2000. There is nothing like this. People want it banned but they don't understand because no one forces them they do this willingly and the spectators that hand on the verges over the garden walls it is a one of a kind and that's it they know they could die both the rider and the spectators yet we all still go. P.S THERE IS A BETTER CLIP THAN THIS IT SHOWS THE RIDE FROM THE SPECTATORS VIEW check it out

[@derlar777]

Great review. When I watch these events where friction is your friend I ask myself how much surface area of the tire is in contact with the road and at that speed going around some curves do you really want to drive on the painted road line?

[@protarget1]

What makes thew races more dangerous, the races are "Time Trials" The riders don't race each other, they set off at 10 seconds intervals, and it's the fastest time that wins. So the riders are flat out out, on the edge all the way around.

The guy that went off the cliff was Connor Cummins.., he was lucky to survive.....He lives on the Island too, so knows the course really well.

Went there in 84 when Joey Dunlop won. To be honest you need to find a spot were you can have at least a couple of hundred yards view of the riders coming, I stood in a spot on a bend, you seen them come around the bend but they were gone in the blink of an eye, so fast and the noise is deafening.

Grew up rural South. The Fathers all bought us dirt bikes because we lived so far apart. There were 8 of us and we knew exactly where the "do not cross" line was 'cause we crossed it...a lot!! We would get cops to chase us for fun. Played Cops & Robbers and to get a "tag" you had to make them wreck (no disputes). We built ramps and were jumping 2 car lengths at 12 y.o. Took farm tractors and built motocross tracks in the fields as soon as crops were in. I bought an XR 650 and had no problems until this woman coming toward me decided to make a left. I did the Superman impression across her hood. Been 4 years and I still "wish her ill". 🏍🚓😉

[@debblackwell2750]

These are normal roads on the iom. As joey said keep it on the grey not on the green. Flying down Kate’s cottage at 100+ even as a pillion on open roads is fantastic. But the danger is huge. The race boys and girls are a different breed and then there’s sidecars.
