Balls of Steel - Isle of Man.
Nice video work, great filming, and oh yeah, those motorcycle riders and their 200 mph machines at the Isle of Man TT......balls of steel when you
think of the speeds they're are comparable to NASCAR and Indy / F1 fast.

I've seen clips from that race before. Truly incredible. I can't stand speed wobble on my board. I think I'd crap myself if I encountered it at
those speeds on those roads. The wrecks are spectacular in some other clips on the web. Race leathers are serious clothing.
