Default First TT Tragedy

Not sure if I've got this in the right place (sorry mods!)

but thought this was news worthy:

Bill Currie & Kevin Morgan have died

Hopefully there are not too many more TT accidents.

I heard earlier. They were famous in the sidecar world, proper veterans. Sad sad news

Brings it home how even the most experienced folk can get in trouble

At least they went doing what they loved

Very sad news that is. I have a massive amount of respect for anyone who races at the TT; they're all heroes whether they finish first or last.

They impounded the side car now as well.
Rip fellas - the paddock was silent when they heard!

It'll be no comfort to their family and friends but at 59 and 67, you have to admire their bravery and enthusiasm.
Bravo gentlemen. Safe journey onwards.
