Capo at the 2016 Isle of Man TT
#31
Excellent wrap up Capo. That last video had my heart rate up. I can only imagine what if feels like to take it in live. How do the riders navigate the course at speeds like that? They have to have it memorized, right? Without clear lines of sight due to buildings, homes, etc., how do they choose their lines? It's incredible and unfathomable to me. And I have to believe that the second man, who I think of as ballast, on those side cars are ALL certifiably insane! Haha.

As far as the back and forth with the ferret, I found it to be a healthy, well-intentioned discussion. If the exact same words were exchanged in person over a peach cobbler and a bottle of Pterodactyl's Bundy Rum, I think it would be punctuated with laughs, serious considerations, and a ton of respect. It would end with a toast to motorcycling and Capo using the ferret's own words in closing, "ride more...worry less."
