Rook Destined to Visit the Isle of Man
06/11/12 1:09 PM

This is the Isle of Man Coat of Arms, I was stunned by the bird on the right which appears to be.......a Rook. I believe this is an omen that Rook will one day visit the IOM.

Ballygarry is the fastest corner in the IOM at 170 mph, it is the most dangerous on the course and where guy Martin and Paul Dobbs crashed in 2010. Martin survived with injuries, Dobbs died instantly from hitting a stone wall.

Straights are 200mph + for the 1000cc superbikes.

The most spectacular crash is from the 2010 IOM TT when Connor Cummins lowsided at 150 mph off the side of a mountain. He miraculously survived after hitting a stone wall on the way down the mountain side. Incredible footage is available of this crash, shot from a helicopter, just Google Connor Cummins crash.

Rook can only dream of riding in the TT. Vacationing back in Upper Michigan with the kiddies and having a wonderful time. Great weather and I miss riding a great deal. I have some catching up to do when I return home.
