This is a pic of David Jefferies who was born in yorkshire. This year in the tt this brave man was killed 4.2miles in to his second practise lap, it is clamied the his bike hit some oil off another bike which sent his TAS suzuki gsxr1000 in a brick wall at 160mph! He died instantly but through the force of the crash his bike broke away and bounce across the road into a telegraph pole which snaped it in half just as that happened another rider Jim Moody came round the corner, And due to the telegraph pole fallin Jim got caught up in the wires which caught him round the neck! Jim was taken to hospital with brething difficulities and was discharged the same day! Had he bin going any faster he surly would have been decapitated but luckly he slowed down to 60mph due to the marshalls flag.But Jim battled on was racing again the NEXT DAY! good on ya lad!
