Watch the Steve Hislop TT video. He described ‘a kerb jumping out’ on a series of bends which there is a straight line through. I’m pretty sure it’s prior to Ginger Hall - defo before Ramsey.
I have a notion that it may be the same as Rutter mentions but maybe not. If you ever go to the IoM you can actually see it happen as you ride through - traffic permitting. Lol
It's really pretty absurd.
You'd be fair to assume they're all just bombastic thrill seekers, but from the way him and others speak, they all have a very real and humbled awareness of how ludicrous this all is.
The section where he reiterates that it took him weeks to learn how to go flat out in a section really got to me. Weeks of work on a single section. It's commitment and learning.
Much salute.
