That was great, thanks. I know I could never do that, I don’t have skill level but love to watch. Sadly: Organisers of the North West 200 have announced the 2021 event has been cancelled due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. It means the Northern Irish road racing event has been canned for a second consecutive year, with the same fate also hitting the Isle of Man TT.
2014 Film “Road”: Directed by Michael Hewitt, Dermot Lavery. With Liam Neeson, Liam Beckett, Siobhan Carter, Stephen Davison. Brothers addicted to speed. At any price. Motorcycle road racing is the most dangerous of all motor sports. One in which men compete at speeds of up to 200 miles per hour on closed country roads. Roads that are lined with trees, telegraph posts, stone walls.
Yes, sorry I didn’t point that out. The film starts with the North West 200, that’s why it stuck in my mind. But the film is totally about the Dunlap family and all their loses.
Having seen Mr Dunlop ride at the Southern 100 on the Isle of Man I can safely say they are mad... Southern100 2016-30 by Pete Smith, on Flickr
