Hello again from the Isle of Man everyone! Thought I drop by and post some TT stuff again Very Happy

Official TT media launch was last night at the Villa Marina in Douglas - riders, interviews, that kinda thing - so the first pics for this year are from there:

This years TT is going to be a belter, plenty of top riders capable of 125mph+ laps so the competition is going to be tight with the promise of some very close racing.
My predictions:

Superbike 1000cc: Guy Martin
Supersport 600cc: Steve Plater / Keith Amor
Superstock 1000cc: Bruce Anstey
Senior TT: John McGuinness / Guy Martin

McGuinness has already stated that if the conditions are right then he will better his current 130mph lap record.

Roll On TT 2009, first practice five weeks today !

Wuhu - TT 2009 has arrived Very Happy Time for some more pictures then...

First batch is something I always wanted to do - a lap of the TT course from the air - goes clockwise once around and I hope you can recognise the sections - some parts look quite different from above.

All clickable thumpnails as they would take ages to load otherwise. Would have loved to do that during the races, but there's some flyboys with their helicopters around and they don't like sharing airspace, for obvious reasons:

ITV covers it - should be on ITV1 + ITV4. Got a new production company as well - apparently, they're trying to do loads of new things and better coverage - certainly hope so.


Yesterday was the first ever practice session for TTXGP, the "World's First Zero Carbon, Clean Emission Grand Prix". Went out with the German entry from Thomas Schoenfelder / xxlracing.de to see what all that electric fuzz is about, and blimey - if you think it's gonna be electric wheelchairs bumbling along, think again - that bike is quick! 2000 batteries in a bike:

First time I ever went round that corner, it was raining and VERY foggy, I've never shat myself so badly as I panicked, then panicked even harder as I saw the tram lines!!

Very nice pictures, I am very jealous! Thumbs Up

There's a preview show on at 9pm tonight on ITV4.

Really looking forward to the TT and hope Guy can pull something out the bag after a fairly uninspiring NW200 performance.

2009 Preview now on ITV Player. Great show, really whetted my appetite. And ditto: Hoping Guy Martin gets a win.
Good practice times, so maybe +131mph average this year. Absolutely mental Twisted Evil
Love it

Some great shots there, Amadeus. Fingers crossed for the weather, especially tomorrow - I don't hold out much hope of there being racing.

2009 Preview now on ITV Player. Great show, really whetted my appetite. And ditto: Hoping Guy Martin gets a win.
Good practice times, so maybe +131mph average this year. Absolutely mental Twisted Evil
Love it

Some snazzy photos amadeus Thumbs Up


131+ already gone this week mate, Cameron Donald on the TAS Suzuki GSXR1000 in thursday night practice did 131.457, although practice times are unofficial, it does make him the fastest man ever to have lapped the mountain course.

Unfortunately Cam crashed at Keppel Gate on friday nights practice and sustained a dislocated shoulder and cracked vertebrae, unlikely he will be fit to race next week but fingers crossed for him.

The guy on the blue yam lost his bearings and crashed right in front of the tv camera.
Think he had a bit of target fixation coz he hit what looked like air fencing around a bollard or something. He was ok tho.

@Owdamer. Judging by that photo he ain't gonna be following the bike infront.
Glad he's ok.

Finally had a chance to look through everything and upload. All images are on the site now

https://www.amadeusphotography.com/html/amadeus_photography_-_tt_2009_.html

but as the gallery application doesn't like me at the moment (doesn't seem to display them at full quality for some reason), I've also uploaded any remaining pics from the fortnight to some photobucket albums. You can view, save and link to them from there as well:
