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.Originally posted by ratewhore View PostI could go on, it's a dangerous road for many reasons and I wouldn't take my bike up there...
They should make it TT style up there and open the roads only to bikers on Sundays.Comment

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.Originally posted by neil987 View PostIs it just me, but I can never understand why, if the road is so dangerous, they never seem to do anything to make the road safer i.e. straighten some of the bad bends etc out by buying some of the land beside the road. Surely safety comes before money???Guy Fawkes - "The last man to enter Parliament with honourable intentions."Comment

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 thermiteHow fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't thinkComment
