    They were ahem 'blowing up' all over the place at the NW200.  This unfortunate cameraman got hit with a lump of one.  The rider is none other than Michael Dunlop who must have been cursing his lineage at the time.

    James Hilliers' went at 197MPH.  I imagine his sphincter went a split second later..

     Jorge Martin went through the Mugello MotoGP speed trap at 226 mph. He was on Michelins though, so sphincter in tact.
