    I have yet to see a motorcycle joy-rider that doesn’t have his number plate bent up inside the mudguard or cover it with tape.

      I live just near and take my bike up there all the time, big shame they are putting these cameras up. Big bunch of fcking t0ssers.

      They should make it TT style up there and open the roads only to bikers on Sundays.

        A lot of the bends up there have been added for safety reasons. The old 'route one' road up there is still doable if you know where to turn off the main road but is full of blind summits and take-off zones.

          Bunch of fookin wussies - that road used to be my playground when I lived in Macc, motorbike races to the Cat & Fiddle were part of growing up - no one got killed & I can't even recall anyone coming off -it's a superb road for scratching - I even had a Ford Corsair 2000 sideways on one of the bends, a mate lost it & rolled a Fiat 500(his mums) with 5 teenagers on board off one of the steep drops all walked away from it.

          Hope those bikers who live around there grow some balls & can get their hands on some thermite
          How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think
