Thanks for sharing. That was well done. One day I will go there.
The bike off the cliff footage is amazing.

Death Race... Are there track officials? Blind corners, sun in your eyes, LOTS of stationary objects to stop you suddenly if you lose control. Heart Pounding!

Those are the 21 century's gladiators where the swords were replaced with the bikes.

Now I know what riding to full potential of suspension and traction looks like.

Fuck that dude going off the cliff early in the video looks brutal, probably RIP.
Why these dudes do this is beyond me.

IOM was on the GP calendar for many years until the FIM saw fit to cancel it. Now all of their races are on carefully groomed closed courses. Rossi was offered a lap last year, and he declined to try it.
It's similar to F1 where the classic road courses have gone away.
The IOM is the last real challenge left in motorcycle racing, and that's why it's still in existence.
