Finally, someone has put a wide angle tail camera on a bike for some onboard footage at the Snaefel Mountain Course. Milky is not running at competition speed, but it's impressive nonetheless to get a better picture of what the rider sees through the visor. Amazing.

Was imagining sitting on the pillion seat shitting myself. Quite scary!!
That’s a brilliant watch and doesn’t that bike sound well!
Reminds me of when I went over for the TT on my GSXR750 donkeys years ago and had the brainwave of getting up at first light to do a lap on my own to try and see how it felt. I wasn’t going to do anything stupid, stay on my side of the road unless I had a completely clear view. Started down Glencrutchery road and got into it and was just getting into it and the sun was coming up. Was just coming thro Glen vine and suddenly the sun shining between the trees then the darkness under the trees was like riding with a strobe light shining in your face! I was wearing a dark visor but it didn’t help so I quickly bailed out and headed back to my hotel in time for brekkie lol! You can see the same thing in that film with Milky who by the way is quite a character when you meet him. I kept it sunny side up and came home with ever more respect for anyone who takes that course on.
