I managed to miss yesterdays review on TV, does anyone know if there are going to be any repeat showings?

Don't know. The coverage was not bad. They managed to include two bits that just about made me **** myself. "He's gone down the escape road" "There's no escape road there" "What did he go up there?" "Don't know. Cycle path?"

I saw that bit... They showed an aerial shot of that corner later and there was a road... but a junction with traffic just behind it, would've had to stop sharpish... Didn't half squirm didn't he..

Not seen any repeats scheduled Jordan but i'll let you know if I do.

Didn't see it on TV myself but sounds like one of the Hawk Kwaks (Carl Rennie?) at the Creg in the Superbike race on Saturday. He was at the Marshall's supper & commented the he'd taken a slight detour....

thats the back road to laxey and douglas, about 20yds later the entrance to the pub and the spectators car park, lots of people walking back and forth, propbably very surprised,

it was hard to see from those shots just how steep that decent to creg is, they come round Kates at the top of the hill at about 150 and accelerate down the hill to maybe 170 then have to brake to get round creg at about 60

men and motors seem to be running a lot of repeats late at night
