one sunday during the tt fortnight on the isle of man, the police close the mountain section to traffic in one direction to make it a one way road for everyone to drive round, heres some videos of a caterham r500 making the most of it.

Its not as bad as it sounds tbh, there are Police at the hairpin making sure everyone knows its now one way, and the rest of the circuit is well Policed so no one can be stupid - speed limits are enforced quite strictly in towns etc.

As a biker you owe it to yourself to try it at least once, its an awesome weeks fun! 8)

Last time I was there I got waved past an unmarked Accord TypeR Police car, at 120mph! I couldn't believe it! :shock: He was smiling as he let me past too, very cool.

Kinda like a 2nd Nordschleife. ;) Apart from the action: nice video, 2 cameras and G-force-meter.
