This starts over here this week.If you did not know,they close the island down for 2 weeks and hold bike races on public roads.No gravel traps or hay bales just walls and lamp posts to stop you .The public can take their bikes out on certain days.No speed traps or limits.I always wanted a go at this.Here are some you tube samples.

That was going on during my last trip to England Ren - back in 91. Unbelievable carnage on public streets. Shocked
