[i]I also find the comments on knowing the risk etc. to be banal at best.

Sorry, I disagree. (I would cos they were my comments) Everyone who races at this event is aware of the risks and they still continue to race, even when a tragedy has occured in the preceding race.

We all accept a degree of risk in what we do everyday, admittedly the TT is an extreme example. I for one would not like my choices to be made for me by the government. There are many who feel motorcycling should be banned altogether to protect us from ourselves. I have heard the same argument used against my other passion, Rugby.
