When is Mad Sunday, is it the Sunday before practice week?

[FASTERTHANSID]

Its the middle Sunday. Between practice week and race week.

When you ride around the circiut during the week before the race, are there no speed limits? Is the road patrolled, and how do the locals handle the one-way traffic....anyone get caught going the wrong way?

[FASTERTHANSID]

1, There are no speed limits on the mountain course at all at any time.

2, The road is patrolled by the police but you can do 180mph if you want to. As long as your not causing a danger to others.

3, The locals are great and handle it just fine.

4, There is a guy this year who has rode a Harley the wrong way twice. He has got half way and turned back. He must be on a suicide mission but will end up taking someone with him. He will be either caught or killed.

Sweet vid mate.. The r6 sounds brilliant! Im torn between the sound of a v-twin and a good ol screamer now! haha but yeah awesome vid mate

[FASTERTHANSID]

Thanks for that mate,

Appreciate your comments.

I'd commit suicide if i rode a Harley too.

I like the random 125's you see in these videos. Some guy all leathered up trying to blend in on a CBR 125.

Sore thumb?!

(Manx person speaking)

1. there are speed limits is sections, such as small villages etc such as Ramsey, Union Mills etc, but when you see a 'nation speed limit' sign there are no limits.

2. if ur doing 180mph you will get done as you are a risk to others. Driving without due care and attention, there are limits to how fast you can ride.

3. i'm a local and yes we do. i love it =]

4. that guy was a nutter!

[zx12ryder]
