With more excitement from the 2010 Isle of Man Tourist Trophy postponed due to fog, you’d think it was a safety-first kind of race if you didn’t know any better.
The video after the jump shows the exact opposite with Adrian Archibald cutting off Guy Martin by the skin of his teeth (my reaction? Jeeesus Christ!).
Riders actually race against the clock, not each other, but in some ways that further encourages these hair raising exploits as the guys go flat out around the island.
Apparently TT riders are like fighter pilots and we’ve already seen an example of Guy Martin’s extreme gardening efforts.
It seems no obstacle, moving or stationary, is to get in the way of racing the clock.
More results to come when today’s races, including the TT Zero, start after being postponed yesterday.
