Of course!
Trying to spot my cousin, unfortunately he only did 3 laps then had to retire.
And poor Guy... he looked utterly pissed off

ITV4 would have you believe that there are only about 10 riders in it.
There's actually well over 40!

I heared a rumour (Unsure if its true) that he has had his bike and van nicked. Think he crashed it last year as a lad I know painted it all up for him, Heres a pic he put on his facebook page

Yeah I know Ste Trav, I saw pics of James in a wheel chair so he must have had a bad crash, didn't know his stuff had been nicked though

Brutal isn't it.
Especially when he bounces off the stone wall.

Amor is doing well considering his shoulder injury.
Felt sorry for Guy in the Superbike race. Was on for podium I'm sure.
18th aint too shabby considering the field. Balls of steel the riders. Must be one of the hardest/dangerous motorsports in the world. Little or no run off and solid brick walls and kerbs is no fun if it goes pear shaped

Guy was lucky today, because the race was red flagged then it was a re-start. He'd actually come off at Creg Ny Baa on lap one. So second chance for him and ended up 3rd
