With that greasy long hair and his terrible choice of bike it doesn't surprise me, plus he smells.

here is my revised slide show, hopefully all in order this time and few added piccies (I think you have to press full screen as its not automatic)
http://s269.photobuc...mview=slideshow
By the way I spotted this on the TT website and its worth a look
As always english literal translations do sound funny, but are so packed with meaning! Comments on the TT site suggest we look for gems such as :
"6th gear and full throttle with a small fear"
"full throttle to the future with no fear"
"No Chorking Throttle"
Imagine having to learn a race course, in traffic on open roads, in a foreign country, and then doing it at racing speeds of 120 - 190mph! Respect to these guys.

I was only half dressed when a local laid me in someone's front garden when the streetlights went out at midnight...........and it wasn't a future 900 rider either............

Unfortunately not taken by one of us, but a stunning and exceptional shot of Hutchinson at Glentramman in this years Superbike TT
I guess Hutch is perhaps doing about 150 at this point................and keeping the power on!
Well done Duke Video and the photographer, Dave Purves.
