The police are becoming more and more armed m8...they just dont make a big thing about it. We have several armed response cops on call 24/7 in our town. Its getting much more prevalent.
I visited the island this september for the first time, and really was quite incredulous that the racers do their speeds on what R quite rough surfaced and awkward cambered roads. If its bumpy at 60..whats it like at 180 !. Obviously you have to know the circuit so well to even just push yer envelope a tad, so my hat is well off to these brave ( looney ??) guys. They do risk so much in their pursuit of victory.I did revel in the unrestricted sections though....its a real oddity and treat having lived and ridden in speed camera infested UK all me life. I think it does make sense on roads out of town.
Until you ride the TT circuit , this sort of film is maybe hard to fully impact on you.
