It’s that time of year again ….

We’re lucky enough to get terrestrial TV coverage here, but you can now also subscribe for online footage.

P.S. First 200mph officially clocked in practice. Remember, these races are on public roads….

Not a motorcycle guy, but those guys and the videos of those races really blow my mind whenever I see them. That reaction time is unreal.

One of the best races out there for sure. Just watching the qualifying makes me want to go out and ride like an idiot :)

I don't think that I managed to get it all out of my system, so I'm not going to buy my 3rd sportbike. But if I did buy one it would be the Yamaha YZF-R1M.

I raced my motorcycles everywhere and I'm very lucky I never laid a motorcycle down going faster than 10 to 15mph. Damaged a couple of helmets, but never got a bump or a bruise.

2nd win - of 2 solo races so far - for Michael Dunlop who is on blistering form and who could well match his uncles, the late, great Joey Dunlop, total of 26 TT wins this week.

If you haven’t seen this yet, you must.
