Nothing on Earth gets the adrenalin pumping like the extreme thrill of the world’s most demanding motorcycle race – the Isle of Man TT. For 100 years the TT has been the supreme challenge for riders. It takes a true hero to tackle the almost 38-mile Mountain Course, racing on public roads at speeds approaching 200mph with houses, hedges, walls and fans just inches away. Now you can share the incredible excitement with the latest instalment in the amazing On Bike TT Experience. This is your chance to see the world-famous TT course from the riders’ point of view, and experience the ultimate white-knuckle ride.
The Isle of Man TT Marshals Association (IOMTTMA) together with the Department of Tourism and Leisure and the Manx Motor Cycle Club have been working hard over the winter on improvements in all areas of marshalling the TT Mountain Circuit.
Former TT winner Richard ‘Milky’ Quayle has been appointed by the Department of Tourism and Leisure to act as Riders Representative for the 2006 Isle of Man TT Races. Richard retired from racing in 2003 bringing to an end a career which saw him win the TT in only his second year in 2002 as well as three Manx Grand Prix races and one Ulster Grand Prix. He was appointed to act as Rider Liaison Officer for the 2005 TT Races, and due to ongoing restructuring of the TT organisation, his role will change in terms of title and responsibilities.
