Round the Island Race 2

Well, I was  there at the start, logged in and streaming the race video. I got 20 seconds of live video and then things went to pot. I'd get 20 seconds of video after five minutes of buffering. Nowhere near as good as last year.

Not sure if it was because of the number of people logged in, or whether my internet was pants.

Either way it wasn't worth watching, so it was out for a cooked breakfast with the family.

Maybe next year. I did watch the race video this evening and coverage is better than last year, with a camera positioned at the Needles. It's just a pity that I couldn't watch it live.

  1. Hi Mark,
    It may well have been your end.
    I had just come in from washing the cars and realised it was about to start and started streaming.
    I had it playing for the whole time while i pootled about.
    It stopped a few times during the whole broadcast but soon picked up again.
