Watching the US broadcast of the Isle of Man TT. They're doing it in 6 one hour episodes. I don't see how they can even straddle those bikes with balls that large!  |

It's easy - they put their balls in their crash helmets, because they've clearly removed their brains!  |

Those POV videos are awesome. I'd love to see a HUD with speed/RPM/Gear on it. Maybe even Gs or lean angle.
