"FULL THROTTLE - ISLE OF MAN TT" MINI DOC FROM OZ T.V . . . . WOULDN'T YOU KNOW IT, THE FIRST WEEKEND OF THE SINGLE GREATEST BIKE CONTEST ON THE PLANET . . . . AND NOT A SCRAP OF NEWS ABOUT IT ON ANY CABLE SPORTS CHANNEL . . . . I MEAN WTF, NOT EVEN ON 'SPEED' . . . . IS IT NOT FAST ENOUGH TO QUALIFY ???

YEAH, THE MOST AWE INSPIRING SPECTACLE IN MOTORSPORT, AN EVENT THAT HAS KEPT FANS AND RIDERS COMING BACK FOR NEARLY A CENTURY, A ONE OF A KIND COURSE IN THE MOST PICTURESQUE OF LOCATIONS AND NOT A FUCKING SNIPPET !!! WAKE THE FUCK UP PROGRAMMERS . . . . GET YOURSELVES HIP !!!!

I mean, what gives, we used to get better coverage out here on commercial television back in the dark and distant eighties, now, there's absolutely sweet fuck all . . . . oh, we'll probably get some stale, bum dag, token clips next week, or month, but that'll be it, for a nation that is pretty apeshit over anything relating to blokes competing in or on things with loud, fast motors attached, we're being shafted !!!!

The video has been pilfered from a show on Australian telly along the lines of Sixty Minutes, only minus the ticking stopwatch . . . . Mark Skaife is a legend Aussie race driver, he does the I.O.M tour of discovery, chats to various other legends, and those who might be, it includes some great classic footage, bits from 'Closer to the Edge' and their own stuff . . . . all in all, a really classy minidoc on the most arse kicking two wheeled contest of big balls bravery in the world.
