Default 'Closer to the edge' dvd

Just watched 'closer to the edge' with me old fella, new dvd just out about Guy Martin/2010 IOM TT races. Well worth a watch, very emotional in parts, and Guy Martin is a bloody hero!

Made me giggle at the start where Guy Martin's on about his passion for bikes and racing, where he says 'some people like going to the pub, i dont drink, some people like shagging, i mean, its alright, i dont mind it but mumble mumble mumble' Cracks me up the fella does

awesome film, the start is mindblowing on board the bike. i do wonder who looks after the brains when they take them out on the start line.

Them guys are wired up different lol ive got so much more respect for them as sports men than some twat who kicks a ball round a field! They really have no fear! When you read the interviews with some of them saying on test week and it takes a good few days to be able to ride that course flat out on a 600 then by the end of the week your back to being able to ride it hard on a 1000! I have an interview with guy wear he say theres one corner you have to time just right as you leave it with the wheels on / just over the white line inches from the grass when flat in 6th gear lol
