mad sunday has nothing to do with the tt races, it's a standalone event in the same area over the same period of time.

Sorry bro. I didn't mean to turn the thread into something about the dangers.

it's all about the dangers, but stats so people actually can see the mileage to compare it with other stuff.

Man, I'm getting it all wrong today.

The stats are pretty bad, even in the context of k's travelled still.

How many entries were there this year?

Everest has claimed about 280. But not in a week.

Correct, the weekly count would be considerably less. 250 in total at the TT.

It's over 270+ according to whatever site I visited, as of last year.

Guess mad Sunday has claimed 20+ over the years.

Oh yeah, the Everest analogy thing. The climbing season there is very short. Dunno if it's two weeks short, but there's a small window. Shit tones fewer people try to climb it too.

When dealing with non conspiracy topics it pays to know the facts.

It is a huge testament to the rider's skills that they can do around 300,000kms each year with so few accidents/injuries/deaths considering the level they are riding at & the conditions they are riding under.

To be fair, I don't think a great deal of the riders are giving it the berries.
