Michael Schumacher - More Motorcycle Racing
May 17th, 2008 by Paul Crowe - "The Kneeslider"
Michael Schumacher, 7 time F1 Champ, will be back on a motorcycle again, racing a Honda CBR1000RR in Germany for Holzhauer Racing. He’ll be racing in the IDM International German Motorbike Championship. This is no weekend club race, this is the real thing.
Although Schumacher still says it’s for fun, it looks like he’s getting more serious with every race. If he stays in this much longer, some might think he’s beginning to look at winning in a new motorsport. Go Michael!

I bet he’s doing a ton of trackdays somewhere. With his money and connections I’m sure that they must be private track rentals with instruction.
Go Schumacher!

as much as I admire his talent and courage, I’d now prefer to see him as a team owner. surtees has now affiliated himself with a new chinese 125cc f.i.m. team. this is where schumacher should be looking. hope his first high-side isn’t his last.
anyway michael, enjoy it while it lasts!

Anyone who enjoys motorcycle racing and gets the chance to do so, then I wish them luck. I couldn’t care less that he used to race F1.

I wonder what his take is on going from an F1 car to two wheels. Is it harder or easier than he thought? How does his car skills carry over? etc… I wish him the best of luck and hope he does well.
