The Morecambe Missile-one of my all time favorites! A true legend! Love his candor & sense of humor! Best wishes for a strong, healthy & successful season! Love & prayers from the USA! Go Honda! 😽🙏✌️💪🏍🔝🏆
100 starts and all those podiums and to cap it off the most down to earth friendly bloke you will ever meet. May the racing Gods be with him 🙏✊Looking forward to seeing him on the start line 🏍💨
What a belter of an interview. John is always honest and such a down to earth guy. So sad to hear about DJ and gus Scott it must have been horrible and how he gelt guilty. I dont really understand how a Marshall can walk on the track tbh. Wish you all the best at the TT this year pal 👍
Thems were not good days Re organisation and marshal training, one; and two; just occasionally, shit happens. Steve Mercer's incident is an example of the aforementioned: Spoken as a Marshall - (my dad too) not just mouth breather in the comments. FWIW I'll have no reservations about walking into the TTMA hut again if I get over this year.
Why would you ever think you let anyone down all your fans are die hard fans win lose draw whatever you are one of the greatest you have proven yourself time and time again if you lost every race the next 2 years you've done it you are the tt man John mcguinness's a true hero every bike rider wants to do what you've done
The 5 questions at the end done me , brilliant interview and I’m still smarting that I didn’t talk to John at a Bennetts Trackday, I was leaving the pit garage as he was coming in 🙄
Talking about experience and having 2 years off, will it give McGuinness an advantage. Just remember one certain Mike 'The Bike' Hailwood went back after 10 years away and won at the TT. So never say never.
You are right when you get to 26 you won't be Joey you will be the great John mcguinness even if you only get 23 Joey might not even been able to ride the new bike like you you never know Joey is great you are great all you boys are my heroes I dream every day taken my bike to the tt I would give anything just Togo around one time you are the man John mcguinness you are just as good as Joey maybe better
Great a rider as he is John Mcguinness is finished he should not be risking his life chasing that one last hurrah because it won't come. Hickman Harrison and Dunlop just far to ahead for him.
@@wolfblitzer1981 I agree with you that beating the likes of Dunlop, Hickman & Harrison will be EXTREMELY difficult but certainly not impossible. Under the right conditions and in the right class he could pull a win still……… I do pray he stays safe though.
I'm a big fan of John's but too many people blow smoke up his arse now, I agree with you and people need to get real. The best he can hope for is top 10 and if the main men hit mechanical issues he could walk into a top 5. That's not slagging him off or being disrespectful and if he proves me wrong I'd be first in the queue to buy the bloke a drink but I wouldn't stick any money on him. Great career, time to move on and enjoy the memories.
That is like asking a fish to stop swimming or a bird to stop flying, he knows it already but he can't just stop, could I ask you to stop walking tomorrow?
Am losing will to live , I need my TT fix . All the crap going on in the world and nut jobs saying Covid’s a cold , it’s not a cold , a cold is not stopping me TT . I need to hear zoom zoom zoom , 1000cc being pinned and 600’s being throttled to death . Only reason why I go on is because in 12 months time I get my yearly booster of joy ha ha
God bless you John but you have they experience to know this is a young man's game I hope you change your mind our egos can be detrimental too our heath if we don't keep them in check reaction time , stamina , physical strength everything is lower and slower it's just the way it is I hope you reconsider and retire the worst thing every athlete does and it can be life threatening in racing to want to retire with a championship or a win its the worst and most dangerous decision . God bless
Agree with all the aforementioned comments below...John is likeable because he's a regular guy, doesn't come off as a regular guy...i.e. a fraud, , but is one.. And still a kid at heart. like most motorcycle enthusiasts, racers. That said....IIRC TT Zero wins are counted in total TT wins, they should NOT. Why, because there are not enough Zero machines to go around, and only maybe 4 competitive ones on the grid. No way any electric motorcycle race bike team can compete with Mugen, other works-type manufactured electric racing motorcycles. Probably why the TT Zero is now defunct. So, in the end, any TT Zero wins should be removed from any competitors total TT win column -PERIOD !!!
One lap wins on an electric bike that had millions of yen spent on it and development VS a few R6 frames with Duracell batteries built by kids From schools and universities. ZERO WINS SHOULDN'T COUNT.

When they made John McGuinness broke the mould as I live in Morecambe my self 🏍️🏍️
Hes that foucused on times he knew exactly how long his introduction was 😂 brilliant.
John deserved an MBE like our Joey Dunlop
Talking about experience and having 2 years off, will it give McGuinness an advantage. Just remember one certain Mike 'The Bike' Hailwood went back after 10 years away and won at the TT. So never say never.
Awesome podcast! Keep it up please

John McGuinness MBE - 23 and Counting.
Good luck I have a feeling you have one more good one I know you are going to get one this year
See you in may!
Just one of the lads! Do you still go that butty van the other side of the m6 on the way to Caton I think
Christ, it’s been a while since I heard (or read) somebody say “butty”.
I like a chip butty, me, with a smear of HP. Hot, buttered, mind.
John is just the best bar none...
I’m so tempted to dress up as a penguin from happy feet with a sign saying mcguinness for strictly come dancing
The Morecambe Missile is such a bogan and a grot, but can the man ride.
Humble hero,
great interview with John but would have been much better with video
No way should John Mc have bee given am MBE ! It should of been a knighthood. Smashing bloke who could not treat us his fans better.
Me good friend done 100 TT Jim Hodson and still going.
Great a rider as he is John Mcguinness is finished he should not be risking his life chasing that one last hurrah because it won't come. Hickman Harrison and Dunlop just far to ahead for him.
Daftest comment of 2022 so far goes to 👆
@@gazbroughton3298 you obviously have a limited knowledge of road racing. Take the rose tinted Mcguinness glasses off.

You sir are a W⚓

If it makes it easier for you, strip them two wins away then! I bet he still has 21 more wins than you........? hahaha
