Hell, it’s probably the greatest show in the world for the motorcycle morons…like us…and you. Continue reading →

2012 PokerStars Senior TT cancelled
The 2012 Senior TT race has been canceled for the first time after the WWI and WWII suspensions. The race was first rescheduled from Friday to Saturday, and after several hours of waiting it was canceled all together. Damp patches along the Mountain Mile were just too risky for the riders on their 200+hp machines. This mean that John McGuinness would miss out on the opportunity to win his 20th career TT win, but we’re sure he’ll be back next year.
