So..... tell us why the lives for MOTORCYCLE competitors are NOT important enough to protect.... even if that meant BANNING the TT!
We banned SO many other things simply because it KILLED people..... why should the lives of the Motorcyclist be SO unimportant?
I tell you what..... if the excitement is increased because the riders are at risk, why not BAN crash helmets and leathers, ...... that would INCREASE the 'excitement' even more.....
Is 'excitement' of the crowd ENOUGH to risk these people's LIVES...... when you KNOW that 1 to 5 will die ..... EVERY year!
You know MY answer...... Ian Hutchinson was the father of two little kids..... I bet THEY will think it was worth the excitement!
Yes.... he COULD have been killed in a bus on the M25 any day of the week....... I also knew that I COULD have been killed racing Long Circuit on GBox karts and 'orphaned' MY children (it's one of the reasons I STOPPED) but there was NEVER a moment that I entered a race meeting being ONE HUNDRED PERCENT CERTAIN that SOMEONE was GOING to DIE in that meeting.... have YOU ever enetered a race meeting KNOWING that......? Would YOU ever enter a race KNOWING that?
It's just that we KNOW the risk of death is quite low in EVERY kart meeting....... but we already KNOW that someone is GUARANTEED to DIE EVERY YEAR AT THE TT!!!!
Ian
