I see William Dunlop has died doing his thing, that family is loosing most of it's men to the sport.

Guess they're doing what they love, but tough to imagine how the girls there deal with it all.
1979 KZ1300 A1
1999 K1200LT - now sold, I like them however was nearly as big as my X5 but no faster.

Fully agree with you: I heard that on the radio this morning - very sad: Michael has lost his dad, brother and uncle to road racing. not sure how they have the mental strength to keep on doing what they do ?

Yesterday, I had the good fortune to meet Ian Hutchinson (what a nice pleasant guy) - he was hobbling around on crutches and looked in discomfort: this a full month after he was racing at the TT with obvoiuosly mobility and pain after his previous repeated surgery. Road Racers are a breed apart.
