For those of you able to access it, there are highlights of the NW200 being shown tonight (Sunday) on BBC NI at 22.30.
Not sure if it's available on the i-Player afterwards?

The main 7 lap Superbike race was an absolute blinder!!

Do make the effort to watch it - you won't be dissapointed, I can't remember
seeing closer racing in years!

That was a brilliant race. Defiantly don't miss it. I was in the start/finish stands everyone was on their feet cheering.

It looked great on tv - it must have been brilliant to be there.

I've been there since the late 70s jezz a lifetime,
it's changed a lot from watching Joey spannering at the back
of his transit van to tyco BMW in their 40 footers with their hospitality marquee.
But I suppose if the riders are getting the financial benefits it has to be good.

I think you can link through sport or NI on iplayer.
Great racing and the only boards should be fantastic.

Well, I've seen lots of bike races over the years but that headline superbike race has to be up there with the best of them.
And the coverage of the whole event was excellent this year.
Definitely worth watching on I.player.

I've been intending to get over to watch some Irish road racing for years, but it never seems to happen.
I've long fancied doing the Cookstown and then hanging around for the Northwest the following week.
Maybe next year.
Do they still run one around Cork ? .. my mother's neck of the woods.

Its edge of the seat stuff, absolutely loved it, road racing at its very best. Up there with McPints 2015 Senior TT win and slightly left field, Peter Hickman vs Rutter and Jessop in last years Macau GP. I love Road Racing!!
