[emrat:9726] Isle of Man TT 2017

Tomorrow is the final day of the Isle of Man TT, which is being carried by the Velocity Channel (Comcast Channel 663) with a one-hour program.  Tomorrow features the premier event, the Senior TT.  Today’s races were rained out.

 

Sadly, three riders have died during the past few days.

 

If you are not familiar with the Isle of Man TT, which began in 1907, here’s a fresh article and hair-raising on-board video from The New York Times:
