#4 The Isle of Man TT race has been going on since 1905...the bikes were not powerful enough to climb the hills until 1911. So its pretty fair to say they know exactly what they are doing. And remember something...nobody is FORCED to ride...they do so because they want to!

there have been 242 rider deaths during official practices or races on the Snaefell Mountain Course (this number includes the riders killed during the Manx Grand Prix and Clubman TT races). The worst year for fatalities was 1970 when six riders lost their lives at the TT. Another racer died at the Manx Grand Prix later in the same year.
