Royal Wedding, Good News alternative.

[hondated]

I am sure its going to be a wonderful day for the couple and for those interested in watching it, one of those being my wife. But if like me its not your thing then there is a great alternative to watch.
And it is the North West 200 motorcycle racing taking place in Northern Ireland. Its on BBC NI and starts at 10am on line. If you cannot get it then I understand it will be on the BBC Red button from 2pm.
Alternatively its going to be a great day for cycling or motorcycling as the roads should be traffic free.

The date has been set for generations as the third Saturday in May.
It was booked way before He and She were even born.

Good suggestion rjb just watched hi lights but also recorded it so I now its going to be worth watching the whole race.

Mayfest? That's what our annual cycling get together is called.
We've been doing it since 2001 and thought we were unique.
Can we copyright our name

fausto (and friends).

And just got back after 8 days away (without telly).....has there been a wedding then?

There seem to be a lot of "accidental" deaths in motorcycle racing, on the IoM for example, I think one has to take great risks to win
Is it worth it, even when it is done on closed circuits and non-participants are not endangered? Is it worth it?

Hope to learn a bit, hope this can be kept separate from discussions about danger, motor crime etc when cycling

At least those risks are being taken by the participants, knowing that they are risks and understanding the consequences. IoM excluded most circuits have pretty good protection for marshalls and spectators - so the risk is basically contained.

Is it worth it? Ask them... they think it is...
