    John McPint is the most lovable racer of all time...I believed he deserves the title living legend of the TT. Down to earth..humble...against the background of what he had achieved at the TT. PHENOMENAL.

    John McGuinness and Joey Dunlop are the two Legends of the TT. Both are cut from the same cloth, they both love the race, going to the edge, and facing that drive for more within themselves, while being who they are the average guy. Just waiting for John's next TT win!

    What a man!
    Adapts to any surface, any bike, any weather.
    He must be close to the perfect motorbike racer?
    Wish him good luck from Norway, whatever he desides to do.

    When it's in your blood John, it's hard to make the break, look at Mike Hailwood he left to go Car racing ! but he came back, just the same as you he loved the camaraderie, I have been watching bike racing since the 50s, when your in the paddock it's like no where else! and the riders from club racing to MotoGp they are one of a kind.

  • @MrBud1003

    Such respect for these guys. Not only because the prove themselves on the road, but the way they handle themselves off the road. True sportsman pushing the limits, and motorcycles not political agendas.

    RIP all the greats who've paid the ultimate price for seeking their dreams. Nobody can know what it would be like to lose someone in this way until it happens. One of the toughest sports in the world. I do not call boxing or those idiots in cages ''sport'' just like horse/dog racing. That is animal cruelty. Nothing more. If your offended, your a part of the problem.
