    When you hear him describe what it was like at 50, doesn't it make you appreciate Joeys last win even more at the age of 48. Legends

      And Joey didn’t just win those 3 he did it in a dominant fashion. The 250 race he was untouchable same with the Formula 1.

    5:45 "As long as I'm warm & me knob's not hanging out, I don't really care" Utterly priceless quote.
    John McGuiness as always, is such a lovely, humble, honest, "Bloody Nice Bloke" & genuinely modest. You can just tell that, especially when he talks about the "younger & faster" riders, he's not jealous of them & is genuinely just happy for them. One of the best, if not the best TT rider ever! Enough said! Take care John, you're a legend & enjoy life at less than 130mph average lap times.

    Bought me a Fireblade only because of this living legend. His sunset has arrived, and Honda should embrace him as a proper ambassador for the brand.

    An absolute legend. My friend has had face to face dealings with John and he's as down to earth, genuine and funny as he appears. Half of me will be glad when he retires as too many top road racers, unfortunately, never get to that point....

    I know this is a year old but as a fairly new TT fan all I can say is what a great spokesman for the greatest race on earth. I kind of hated when Dunlop surpassed him but he’s a great racer as well. They all have balls of titanium!

      Ian is a local to us, and it's absolutely criminal how little he is known.
      Hutchy won FIVE IN A WEEK!!!
      Even te great joey Dunlop never managed that.
      Ian Hutchinson is one of the greatest EVER tt riders, and it's actually appalling how he isn't a world famous racer.
      Five TTs in a week!!!

    I too am 50, riding a ZX10R. There is no way I could do what John does. He is at the pointy end of the field still. Hats off to him.

    • @shawnrichey5847
      @shawnrichey5847 Před rokem +2

      It helps to know the course. I heard one rider say if you laid a penny on the tarmac where John had just traveled he would run over it the next time around.

      55. Wanted a zx-10. Got a zx-6. I might still be a little crazy on a bike. Been a couple of decades but still. Most important thing ive ever heard in regards to a bike, you go where you look. If you’re looking at a tree or the line on the absolute side of the expressway by the grass, you’re going there

    C'mon John. It's May, it's getting close to the Isle of Man TT 2024! Can John McGuinness get his 24th win this year? Or his 48th podium? Either way the man is an absolute hero, nothing more to prove. John McGuinness for his 24th win, then will he decide to hang the helmet up? 🏁🇮🇲🇬🇧🏍🥇🏆🙏🏼

  • @sferguson1130
    @sferguson1130 Před rokem +1

    I would love to see John ride off into the sunset, capping his TT career at 100. Such a massively successful icon of the event. 100 is such a mind blowing achievement, and what better way to call it a day safely, than on that bike’s incredible paint job and leathers/helmet kit! If he does decide to hang up the leathers, I certainly hope he never stops being a part of the event every year. Cheers John 🍻

    @elonmusk9697 Před rokem +2

    I think what makes him the best ever is that today, age is an even stronger factor than it used too, all the incredibly fast guys he had to face in his thirty years, in his 50's still going strong, absolutely flawless,...
    But his biggest achievement clearly is, over his whole career he's lapped the TT circuit so often that he did tens of thousands of kilometers going 130mph through villages and country roads and he's still her... Legend!

    Can't speak about John without speaking about Becky.
    Having had the person vilege of meeting them all, I have to say, Becky is an absolute diamond.
    I met them at oliver mount a few years back, and got so exited about meeting John McGuiness that I made a bit of a tit of myself, and John naturally took the piss a bit, but Becky just smoothed it all out effortlessly.
    She really is a magical woman, and John is very lucky to have her.
    A lovely, lovely couple, lovely family, and a legendary racer.
    God bless ya John.

    @Peter-or8oc Před 23 dny

    Mate you'd been out off the TT for a few years so don't beat ya self up about not blowing the rubber of on your first lap even the time you posted for it is faster than 99.999 of any biker in the world could go and you have to be 100% if your gonna push it to the max it's bad enough if you come off at a properly for supervise track you know yourself at the TT if you come of there at those speeds it's at the very least broken bones but more likely the end of things so you used your head . With experience comes sense you've got nowt to prove mate :-) :-)
