    In the moto doc "Take It To The Limit", Mike Hailwood does a lap on a Yamaha TZ750 two stroke four cylinder with camera on board and calls out the gears and speed. At one point he is doing 180+ down the back of the mountain in fog. An amazing rider, came back after an 11 year hiatus from racing bikes and won the TT. Sadly, he was killed years later in a car accident. Skilled on four wheels as well as two he purposely turned the car so the driver side would bear the brunt of the impact. His young daughter was in the passenger seat.

    Cool NW 200

    If you like to see more road racing, then have a look at The North West 200. It takes place on the roads of Portrush in Northern Ireland. All of the TT riders use the NW 200 as a warm up for the TT.
