Isle of Man TT 2010 - Onboard Suzuki GSXR1000 K9 (Mountain)

Onboard footage from my Suzuki GSXR1000 K9, taken during race week of the 2010 Isle of Man TT races.
The mountain footage was from one of just two dry and fog-free runs we managed during our brief visit this year.
The roads were damp in places due to changeable weather and relatively low temperatures.
Great fun and awesome roads. Enjoy.

Amazing skill - though what you said about age, I mean it's true, but at that age you can still make it. Ian Hutchinson is 33 now.

Here he is: watch?v=HNp_GIxmshY

Although hes on a whole new level, you can still see that "old" people are still in the game (well, when it comes to the TT)

@Az3trk funnily enough- I did decide to have a go :) I got my Clubman licence last January and raced with HMRC on an R6 throughout 2011. Fantastic experience. I managed 5 Rookie class wins and finished 2nd in the Championship on an under-powered bike (only had 110bhp at the back wheel).

Just been to the awards dinner this weekend and collected my trophy from Keith Flint (Prodigy) and Karl Harris.

Start testing for the 2012 season end of Feb :O) Bring it on!.......

@Az3trk ps. I know hutchy- he only lives 3 miles away ;) & yes- he's a legend

what camera set up are you using ?, the quality is great

[alpinestarsf9]

@theyoungchevalier I use a GoPro Hero HD. I record in the lowest resolution setting cos it's still great quality. It will record in full 1080P widescreen High Definition.

bugger me you can ride....you passed everything on the mountain...ever thought of doing it for real and compeat?

[alpinestarsf9]

@hairydotarse If I was 10 years younger, i'd have a go. But at 37 I fear its a bit late to make a start now :O(

@alpinestarsf9

:D Congratulations! That's awesome dude, props. Best of luck for the upcoming season!!

It is one of my goals in life, but I have a long way to go, but then again, I have a lot of time ahead of me.

:D Stay safe both of you
