Isle of Man TT 2016

Hows McPint doing?

 

awesome TT. hope for faster time and no fatalities next year. MD is unreal. Hutch is unreal as well. Hell all of them are.

 

Not up to par. He didn't even get the gimmie prize of the TT Zero win. Anstey got that one.

 

I believe he was ahead in that race until he had a bike problem.

 

Oh here we go. The media have played up the Hutchy vs MD battle all week. MD is a prima donna and he has been that way for a while not only at the TT. William just goes about his business but MD sometimes acts like his last name makes him special. He's got a lot of wins but so do other guys out there who aren't dicks.

And yes, I feel dirty for posting an MCEnquirer story.

 

Yeah, and like the twins class and Fahrquar, I usually assume the win will have to be McPint's. John doesn't seem to be on boil for anything but TTZero and the Senior. Maybe superbike, but only as a building block to the Senior.

 

There's a "bike fit" joke in there for McPlus-size. He's probably already made it.

 

Lost a sidecar competitor today. Ian Bell rip. He was 58 years old. I'm sad for his passing but I hope I still have that much life at 58 to be doing what he was doing.

 

Just worth noting is that Anstey is riding after taking a good beating from a crash earlier in the week.

 

Hoped Brandon would beat the suter. Next time! Finishing is honorable enough..I know he's probably not happy, but all things considered, to get a result is pretty danged respectable.

And damned, rip ian bell.

 

On the RCV?

 

Cretu posted up he rode with the 360 cam at some point. Should be a cool vid!

 

One report I saw said yes, at Keppel Gate. During practice.

 

RIP! But yeah,I do agree on that too!!

 

Padgetts had twitted it was the Fireblade and not the RCV.

 

Third in the Senior today.

Next year there should be a new CBR and a new GSXR in the mix. I can't see the top guys switching from BMW at this point though. The current R1 just doesn't have the beans.
