Isle of Man 2025. 5.26 - 6.7 **Spoiler**

Catching a little practice while working.
Imagine riding a Superbike, jumping on a Supersport and then jumping on a Twins machine.

The adjustments to each are likely not too easy, but these guys make it work. They swap leathers when they can to get into their sponsors gear and sometimes they don't due to time allowed.

Also noted: Dunlop's SS Ducati is fast as F.
 
Let’s review the day.

Practice today cancelled. :(
 
Gone since Friday AM and just trying to catch up. Weather shortened my list so bonus there. :p

The shocker was Hickey crashing and being hurt.

Glad it was not more serious.
 
Catching up. First SBK Race (1 day behind).

Good battle between Todd and Dunlop. Down to .2 second on lap 4 after about 100 miles of crazy cool.

Supertwins at it.

Dunlop pretty much rules this class. Here he is already ahead of the 2nd place rider Mike Evans.
He started 10 seconds behind. They are continuing nose to tail over the mountain.

Dunlop gets his 31st win and 48th podium in 92 starts. Pretty damn solid.

Mikey Evans with his first ever TT podium. Cool to do it on his 32nd birthday.

And we go for Supersport Race 2

4 laps this time. Dunlop's Duc is pretty wildly wrapped for a Ducati. I like it.

Enjoy Supersport Race 2.

The lads and ladies are back at it today after a day off.

STK 1000 and Supertwins.

Then the final SR TT race tomorrow.

Time flies when you are having fun.

The lack of other posters has me starting to think I need help.

"Hello. I am Budman and I am a Motohaulic"
 
Today is the SR TT.

I am catching up on yesterdays show.

Dean Harrison is leading on lap 2 of SS after Davey Todd could not get his bike started after his pit stop.
He lost almost 14 secs and the lead for Deano expanded from .5 to 13 plus. Dunlop with bike issues on lap 1 besides a run on in a corner.

The softened the bike during the pit stop. We will see if he can catch a podium. It would be his 50th.

The mountain section is looking beautiful.

1749318299336.png

One rider broke his arm when hit by or he hit a bird. That sux.

Harrison continued to rock stretching his lead to 20 seconds at the Grandstand (Start/ Finish).

Josh Brooks in action on the final lap. Great to see John McGuiness out there having fun too.
1749318952126.png

Thinking Harrison should ride his superstock bike in the SR. Maybe swap the brakes, but he is faster on the stocker and could give Todd and Dunlop a solid battle.

Todd chasing McGuinness on the mountain and the OG is holding him off.. fucking awesome!
Todd kept sniffing, but the OG is ripping and not relenting. Love it when old guys rock.

Deano slapping the fans five. Nice job and a dominating win really.

Mom and Dad with big smiles.

Supertwins will wrap up the day.

Another OG Michael Rutter (53yo) is looking to have some fun.
1749320224714.png

3 lap race to decide who will be the fastest on the small bikes. My money is on Dunlop.

Michael's little twin tapped 162mph. Todd just a bit under 156mph. Pretty good for a 60HP bike.
With so much of the course being flat out on these bikes that is a huge margin and it showed quickly as Dunlop rocked out to a over 10 second lead at the on the first lap.

1749320663973.png

Dunlop at the pit stop. Crew has to make sure the bike is fully full for the remaining two laps. No urgency with a big lead made it easy.
He did lose time to Todd in the pits, 6 secs was a lot. :wow
1749320843902.png

12 second lead cut to 6, but with that top speed advantage he should make it up.

As expected he stretched it out and when they started the climb up the mountain he made up for it and more.
6 seconds below the lap record at Ramsey.
1749321273041.png

Good battle for third as Paul Jordan on an Aprilia is holding onto Dunlops tail and making up time on Dom Herbertson. A lot of it actually.
1749321643517.png

Down to 5 secs as they hit the last sector. He stuck with Dunlop all the way to the Grandstand.
Dunlop did a 123.056mph lap for a new lap record. :thumbup
This is smoking on the small bike.
1749321995163.png

Herbertson did take the final podium spot by 3 seconds. Following Dunlop sure did give Jordan a solid tow!

On to the SR TT tomorrow.
