Never argue with an idiot. He brings you down to his level, then beats you
with experience...

These guys are crazy, they're really flying through those tight twisty bits at
insane speeds. It's really exciting to watch...especially the on bike
cam...really shows you how fast they're moving!

And they're racing between the walls and houses of country villages -
these guys make the F1 boys' safety-whinging look pathetic. A lot of them

Yeah, they are mad, aren't they. The speeds they fly around that course
are suicidal. I don't know whether to be in awe of them or direct them
to the nearest nut house. Bonkers, completely bonkers the lot of 'em!
