Isle of Man TT 2014

This is heart wrenching and taken from "closer to the edge". i cant help thinking that her kids playing with her will probably follow her husbands footsteps into the sport. The bond between these people is a very special thing and maybe has been lost in modern society..

That was it. I think that has to be one of my favourite TT films because it shows you that, yes, it is very thrilling, but there is a great sense of community when something happens to one of the bikers. Pretty sure there was a woman on it who said that every time a bike came around a corner, her heart was in her mouth. That's what I was like watching my first TT... every time a bike appeared or did a little wobble.

I know someone sent me one, but I don't think it was this one. I know what I'm watching later Thanks!

Don't forget...The Dunlop film "Road" is released on Wednesday and the cinemas are screening a live Q&A with William and Michael from London straight after the film ends. (7pm showing only)

Phillip McCallen: "Michael Dunlop can beat Joey's TT record"

Would be something if he could.

I've been really bad at updating with results this year.. sorry folks!

Yesterday's Sidecar race 2 was won by Dave Molyneux and Patrick Farrance, which isn't much of a surprise really. Conrad Harrison and Mike Aylott came in second with John Holden and Andrew Winkle coming in at third place.

This morning's Lightweight TT has been won by Dean Harrison who had a massive 14.6 second lead on James Hillier in second place with James Cowton in third.

The senior TT is underway now. Michael Dunlop, Conor Cummins, and Guy Martin are at the top of the leader board right now.

I was a bit too slow it seems... listening to the radio of the race with the bikes all together... ah! It's one of my favourite sounds

Update: William Dunlop has come off. He's conscious and stable but with a suspected broken leg... crikey!

William Dunlop crashed out on lap 4 ...ok broken leg
Michael still leads.....

The gap between him and Conor is fluctuating a lot. I would honestly like to see the gap closed between them a bit more because I really think the Manxman has it in him to win, but Dunlop isn't about to give up his lead! 6 seconds between them after Michael had a bit of a bad pit stop... we'll hear what happens
