The BBC tend to do very good coverage of this.

Re: NW200
Was watching some of the practice earlier today, Rutter & the Austrian lad Saiger seem to be doing well at the moment. I'll be keeping an eye on it on Thursday.

Re: NW200
Anyone know if you can get BBC NI on virgin media ? I know you can get all the regional BBC channels on sky (I think there channel numbers 974 - 996 or very similar) bit just swapping to virign media I m not sure and I'm not at home to check right now.

Re: NW200
I watch it on sky. You can get NI in HD now too. They also had the Cookstown 100 the other night. NW200 coverage from tonight each night I think. I have it on series link so it just does it.

Re: NW200
Yep!
With all the crashes he's had, whilst its admirable the effort and pain he has gone thorugh to get back on a race bike, I kind of wish he would call it a day. Being the 1st person to win all 5 races in TT week will ensure he will be remembered, he will never achieve anything like this again.

Re: NW200
I guess like most athletes they find it hard to quit. I hope it's not a acciden that forces him to give up.

Re: NW200
That finger looks awful, I saw a brief interview with him yesterday after that happened and was patched up, he was just about to go back out and get a couple more laps in. Not really sure where being brave turns into foolishness regarding injuries, but he looks to have had his share of misfortune. Hope he gets some good luck at some point this year.

Re: NW200
It's how they earn their living. They can make some good money from road racing but I do agree that there ought to come a point when you decide that you have pushed your luck far enough with the crashes and walked away.Rob wrote:Yep!

Both Foggy and Whitham made this point about their own personal TT experiences the other night.
