I like the way the guy on the moped turns to have a look and then carries on 
Next link down on that page has some good examples of idiocy mixed in with some racing spill. The guy on the yellow number 1 bike about 1:40 in is my new hero, awesome recovery.

Felt sorry for black bike #34 - was that at the TT? Agree about the yellow bike #1 that has to be the best recovery you'll ever see. Looks like a 2 stroke GP bike wearing No 1 - who was the rider? Most of the rest deserved all they got.
