The North West and the TT are always worth a watch too. I rate the TT over most motorsports just for the sheer skills and bravery involved. Me and the missus are Guy Martin fans too.Last edited by vanpeebles; 17-03-2013, 14:50.

Have you been watching the program on ITV 4 following the TT Legends team throughout 2012? Seem to remember on one episode they had clocked John McGuinness on the Superbike through the bottom of Bray Hill at 176 i think it was, absoloute balls of steel all of them!!! And yes, Guy fans here too!!!

Yeah I seen a few of them I liked an old program they did and McGuiness was talking about the old days when Mike Hailwood made his TT comeback.
I'm a bit of a Norton fanboy as my dad has a commando so my fave TT moment is when Hislop rode the Norton home against Fogarty on his Yamaha. The last great hurrah for british bikes.Last edited by vanpeebles; 17-03-2013, 17:44.

I'm a massive two wheeled fan also, was lucky enough to work on MCN for six years, had a new company motorbike every six months and some great perks, shame those days ended in 2001.
Can't wait for Rossi to bring it in 2013. With Lorenzo and Pedrosa and the others should be a vintage year for Moto GP fans. Just three weeks until the first race.
Pleased for Kimi today, and that Red Bull aren't running away with things already.
That McLaren is darn slow.

Yeah, Kimi deserved it. He drove flawlessly. It was an interesting race but rather low on incident and excitement. Looks like the tyres this season might be even less durable than last years which, though likely to produce some very exciting races, isn't the direction the sport should be taking in my opinion. I wanna see drivers driving their hardest, not holding back and looking after their tyres.

It was brilliant. Gloves will be off in RB now. Don't think Webber will let that happen easily again if he is told to move over later on (very likely).
If it wasn't for the badly thought out strategy on Hamilton's side Mercedes look quick too. Rosberg should have been allowed through if it was fairly thought out. Quite obvious Hamilton has a preference in his contract.
