Every now and then one of those cameras gets sucked out of their hand by the air pressure. Surprisingly they're not too keen to retreive it...! :eek:

Can't see the racing these days because of the poxy cameras. Nobody watches the racing until they get home and watch it in HD!!

We marshal at Quarterbridge for the ManxGP and one year we had to rescue some east European muppet during a practice. He was walking along the pavement towards us from Bradden Bridge with his phone on a selfie stick, videoing himself and the bikes going by ....

Even watching that race is scary..
Always amazed there is room on the bikes for the balls it takes to take part

Never ceases to amaze me the age of some riders at the Classic and ManxGP races... 60's plus and riding a bike with tyres not much bigger than on a mountain bike. And they're not coasting round...!

I have only been to one motorised cycle race - World Superbikes at Brands. The thing that really, really pissed me off was the morons letting off air horns every time one of their favourite riders went past. Once fine, twice maybe but relentlessly.....
