John McGuinness - a legend on a legendary lap

As the fastest ever man around the Isle of Man TT, 19-times winner and Honda TT Legends rider John McGuinness is what you might call an expert on the 37.739-mile mountain course. Here, he talks through the Isle of Man TT lap, giving a unique account of his techniques and feelings on some of the most famous sections - from Bray Hill to Rhencullen, Kirk Michael and the Sulby Straight, to the Mountain, the Verandah, Creg-ny-baa and the start/finish on Glenclutchery Road. A legendary lap by a legendary rider.

I think the TT is the ultimate test of motercycle riding ability. I know its hard to compare to the track racers, but these guys are the ultimate racers, rossi etc the track racers, in my opinion are not in the same league as road racers. Road racing the the ultimate test of man and machine.

Ive been riding a little over a year and ive hit 180 on the track but not over 150 on the street. I watch the TT so i can live the experiance......if i tried to ride it....i would die from it. This race is for only the best.
