You have every right to be confident in your videos and stories! You’re great! Great videos. Love the insight of the job, it makes me look at TMs totally different. Also makes me think you guys should get a lovely bonus at the end of each TT 😂

Good luck to Ray 👍

👍🏻🇨🇦

❤ never giving up the hope to help someone in such a desperate need My total admiration For all that run such an iconic event God bless you all Me and my fallen friend Debbie One day I’ll get over Whoop

What a great story. Thanks for sharing this. … now … of course, since Ray is a racer, he is probably tryin to put a team together and get an entry for 2025 I assume ;)

Amazing story and even more amazing Ray survived and got back to some normality. The doctors and marshals are hero's. It must feel great and rewarding seeing that Ray made a good recovery.

Great podcast

I used to work with Ray, nice bloke but he should not have been Even allowed to race the Manx

Never heard of that injury before. Amazing he survived and recovered

Another great video, im glad it's been abke to be re-posted

Silent hero’s all of youse and about time the general population hear a few stories good and bad. I’m sure that all those who compete in motor sport on the island can’t praise you guys and girls enough keep on being silent heroes and the great content 🇮🇲🇮🇲👍👍

Always great to hear a remarkable story with a happy ending. Amazing what medical science and the right people in the right place can do - Thank you 👍

Has this not been posted before?

Hmm, every time I click to watch I notice that I've had to keep re subscribing?

Ace video mate

Heard there is a brickie from Morecambe who's won a few and may want to be involved in the TT when he retires... in decade or so!!😉Interesting video as always. And saw your sim setup on the Obsession Engineering channel video last year. Worth a watch for the uninitiated.

my first TT this yr was superb even tho weather hit/miss,you guys do tremendous job along with everyone involved,keep up the fabulous work👍question pal have they stopped all electric category?

Talking of the paralysed passenger. Went to pick up a friend of a best mate on my CB 750 noticed this lad had a slight limp, sets off all ok next minute as we are going down hill he’s screaming my leg my leg my leg is off! I thought I was going to turn round see his leg all shredded. It was a false leg had become detached🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Great behind the scenes video.

Do you Marshall the southern as well? Going to be over in a couple of weeks and will be down at the clubhouse before probably heading upto church bends, what happens to your old helmets and jackets as would fancy a jacket or helmet for my collection in exchange for a donation towards the 100.

Hi Jonathan do you think that when one of the long time TMs decide to hang up their leathers and retire that Honda would do the decent thing and let them keep their last TM bike it would only be good publicity for them. Keep the fantastic content coming. Cheers Jim

Brilliant content thank you. Do you have to have lapped the course at a certain average speed to be looked at for being a TM in the selection process? E.g minimum lap of 110 mph. Avg

I just wonder how many letter ‘R’s Honda will end up adding to the Fireblade… Will we ever see the CBR1000RRRR-R

These vidoes are top class! I was wondering if you race bikes on circuits to keep you sharp or maybe track days? Or is it only for the TT, southern 100 and manx GP? Might seem a silly question but would be interested to know! Keep up the great work 👍🏼👍🏼🏍🏍

Another fantastic video! That car simulator is a game changer for a newcomer 😮... I've sent you a private message!

Thanks these are great. My question would be: "Do you ever get star-struck when helping around the course when a legend is involved? Like do you have times where maybe someone like John, or MD will break down and roll up to your spot or maybe someone famous has a minor off and you are on the scene?" I would not be able to speak probably if Dean or John rolled up.

Boom! My favourite channel has uploaded 💪🏻

What is your opinion on Conor pulling out ? do you think thats that for him or will he be back?

Afternoon Jonathan . How much rain would stop a race in progress ? Glen Helen was wet all tt week how does that effect going into Sarah's cottage?

Hi J. One point not raised is “do Honda supply your petrol or reimburse your fuel expenses.”? Great vlog. Thanks for sharing.

In 1981 Geoff Duke was a travelling Marshal and he was riding a Honda CX 500 turbo, so there has been at least 1 TT winner who went on to be a travelling marshal

Hats of to the TT Travelling Marshals i did a road marshal in Northern Ireland pulling people out of hedges and so on even Red Flagging a race but i'm not going into that these guys and ladies do a wonderful job without them there would be no TT or any road races which we all love.😀

Thanks for all the great content you film! And never worry about going off on tangents (they're often the best bits). One question: Has the TT ever had travelling medics similar to the Irish road racing or just the Air Med? Cheers.

Great insight into what goes on behind the scenes 👍

Are MGP winners guaranteed a place in next year's TT? I think they should be guaranteed an entry in the relevant class as an incentive to win the junior/senior mgp

That was very interesting. Thanks for making such informative videos 👍

Grand bit of information Jonathan! back in the early 1980's I looked into completing the Manx, I choose to marshal (had to sign on as special constable then) at several different points around the circuit, basically to learn different angles and approaches to do the corners for the following year! (sorry to say both money & main sponsor, ran out the later going bust)! but even marshalling at different corners opened my eyes, and would recommend anyone to get involved. After all local (main land UK) or Isle of Man races could not take part without Marshalls.

misconceptions ? okay that's cool but i for one need to know more about that vtr 1000 sp1 in the background please . top work BTW

love watching your videos very interesting to hear the valuable work the TMs do enjoyed the arai video your story coming to TT with your parents in the sidecar was special I had my first motorcycle journey in my uncles sidecar many years ago

Thanks Jonathan another good one. Often wondered whether if a retired top racer , think of a particular one here , wanted to become a TM he would be given priority when a vacancy occurs.

The way Arai support you lads is the reason why I would not buy any other helmet brand.

Great video, love hearing all the background info, much respect to you all!

These videos are great - thank you 👍

Speaking as a grunt marshall I think you do a amazing job.

Is there any tm posters we can get

Evening Jonathan….you are doing a grand job on keeping the content growing ….well done.👍👌🇮🇲

I'm from New Zealand and have TT+ for a few years now one thing is majorly lacking is close to real time information about delays etc...When it is live there it is roughly 1am here and I'm sure many other people from this part of the world has the same issue. Other then that it is epic.

Marshals don't get enough praise. I used to Marshal at the bike racing in mondello Park here in Ireland and I would LOVE to Marshal at the TT

The paralysed rider you refer to that fell off at Ramsey Hairpin was me!! It was during the Manx GP past winners 90th anniversary parade lap in 2013. There was a small mechanical failure which ultimately caused me to 'ride' up the bank on the exit of the hairpin and I ended up laying on the bank with several first aiders and marshalls around me not sure what to do. Ultimately they asked me if I wanted to get back on the bike and complete the lap, to which I said yes, and instructed them as to how to get me back on the bike and ready to ride away. Unfortunately the Clerk of the Course had other ideas and wouldn't let me continue. I did try again in 2015 on a different bike, Triumph Daytona, but had to pull in at Ginger Hall with major suspension issues; and thereby create another very amusing story; but that's for another time. Ultimately I became the first paralysed rider to complete a lap of the TT course on a solo machine in 2016; and subsequently went to Dundrod and did a lap there, which is the course where I broke my back at the Ulster GP in 1995. Don't often get the chance to acknowledge what a great job you TM's do at the Manx GP and TT, so thank you, it is greatly appreciated.

I was at the bungalow when Redmond crashed. Looked awful. Was almost lucky it took him a while to get control as hed passed the foot bridge by the time he hit the bank. Couldnt believe how far he travelled in the air. Glad hes on the mend.
