I have friends that go and swear it's the worlds best motorcycle race.

Keep meaning to go but to get a place over there is insane.
Waiting lists are for years and years. And when I mean a place, the locals there just rent their homes out for a week and bugger off on holiday and still be quids in when they get back. People pay top dollar to be there.

Mental. People regularly die on that race, no soft landings, you come off you probably are going to clatter into something hard.
