Problem is my Irish roots kick in after a few drinks, and thats no time to ride.

I can't get enough of these races. Every time the TT comes on TV I watch the whole thing. Even if I've seen it 20 times.

I love NW200, too. I have it on DVD but can't recall what year.

I hear you. I have the 2005 on DVD and have watched it hundreds of times and still watch it especially in winter time when I can't ride.

I agree with you 100%! It would be pretty fun to see some racing like that here in the US.

Wasn't there talk of a road race being run in Canada not too long ago.....wonder if it's still in the pipeline?

Never heard of it. I guess that was one of the many problems maybe? Sounds like they might have run it on the Cabot Trail? He is right about one thing in that there is very little corporate support of pro motorcycle racing here in Canada both for the events and any tv coverage that they might hope to get. Usually events get broadcast on one of our sportstations 2 months after they took place and on a Tuesday afternoon at 2 pm. On the other side of the coin that's all the more reason to attend the events live and in person and we do have lots of great circuits here in Canada so we do have that going for us.


BTW, thanks for the reminder....I just went to ebay and picked up the 2009 Isle of Man dvd from a lad in Manchester, UK.
