There's little room in one's mind for doubt, and few know when the moment to stop will come.  The big hits can't happen forever.  I stopped doing big wall rock climbing by surprise.  Got to the top, was sitting and sipping with my partner, looked at him, and said "That was the last climb."  He just nodded, and found someone else to climb with.  Guy knows where he is on that spectrum, I'm sure.

well he took on the wall of death and set a world speed record. He's still the MAN.

He hasn't given up on the IOM Just other priorities and adventures this year. He'll be back to the TT.

He's busy at the moment

I guess that it will turn into a TV programme - I just hope that Channel 4 (UK) don't get hold of it and turn it into the travesty that the wall of death programme was that was broadcast over here

that's an old headline and from people who were there, he was a no show to the bike race.

the whole of that Wall of Death program is online at http://www.channel4.com/programmes/guy-martins-wall-of-death-live/on-demand/60452-001
Not sure if you can access it from the USA - you may need to use a VPN and pretend you're in the UK
