Just Watched: TT: Closer To The Edge

If you ever wondered what it would be like to put your life on the line, year after year, for a sport that you loved, I’ve got the movie for you.

Announced earlier this year, TT: Closer To The Edge (the non-3D version of the theatrical release) is just now making it to DVD.

It chronicles the historic Isle Of Man TT and its competitors during the annual event in 2010. Guy Martin, a charismatic, eccentric, rebellious road racer from East Midlands in the UK takes a prominent role in the documentary epic, having placed on the podium multiple times in years gone past but never picking up a win.

Before I get too deep into it and ruin the experience for you, just watch the trailer and pick up a copy of the movie however you can. Anyone who can identify with putting their passion above all else will enjoy it, motorcyclist or not.
