These guys are not journalists at all. They are simply childish brats demonstrating the kind of yob culture football has suffered from and we have largely been free from.
They don't speak for motorcycle racing competitors or enthusiasts. We don't want them.Don't buy their paper.

It's good (for reading, not the litter tray) and big Norrie wrote for it latterly.

Do you think it is irresponsible or a reporter having a bit of fun ?

Probably both (if you are referring to the MCN reporter on Archibald's bike). I'm just gald I wasn't returning from my quiet early Sunday morning learner's ride at the time.......

Hmmm...more a case of the journalist being a joke, I think.

I remember in my youth that the TT-winning machines were ridden out up on the Mountain Mile by a selection of journalists without any major comeback..
I know speeds are different now but they were still riding race machinery on public roads.
However in those days we got a rational and sensible assessment of the bike without us thinking that the writer was a dangerous boasting fool.
