Title: Agostini and Rossi at the Isle of Man Post by: mytduk on June 17, 2009, 11:28:13 AM This is a short 4 minute video of Valentino Rossi and Giacamo Agostini doing a so called Parade Lap at the Isle of Man Races two weeks ago. There are plenty of Mingers (wheelies) by both the camera rider and Rossi. The Isle of Man is one of those "Must go to" events for a motorcyclist. It sounds like the camera rider is riding a Ducati.

We talked in depth about the races and the island and the general consensus was that the whole experience is awesome.
When you consider thet the lap record was set at 131.5 and that its just over 37 miles per lap on public roads you have to admit its mind blowing and the closeness of the bikes is to the spectators is some thing you have to experience. |
