well i hate to say it, but i kinda saw something like this coming, maybe not deaths but injuries, because from the coverage you can see here on JW it's just not a safe course :?

For some reason that's the most dangerous race in the world - for riders and for spectators.

RIP.

It's been running for 100 years, the course has dry stone walls and no run off, if you make a mistake the results will always be worse than on a track.

I think all the riders accept this, the spectators? Wrong place wrong time.

RIP

I was on the Isle of Man last summer and if you look at the course and how fast they go its not really a surprise, still this is very sad and very tragic, may they RIP.. :(
