    Isle of Man TT

    Racing started yesterday (should have been Saturday but it rained and was foggy) and it's already quick... Superbike lap record went, 128.04mph on the in lap for John McGuinness.... (that's average over 37.75 miles btw) and the sidecar A race was very close - 1st and 2nd place were about 5 seconds apart until Nick Crowe's outfit stopped..

    More racing today and tomorrow, with the Superstock today and the Sidecar B and Supersport Junior race tomorrow

    Looking forward to the Senior on Friday (Cos I get the day off ) and hopefully the outright lap record of 129.something will go too

    Agreed, that was some of the best road racing I've seen. The MotoGP before it just totally paled in comparison.
