- Motorcycle sport is all about action. And the Isle of Man is where it’s at when it comes to the most action-packed motorcycle event in the World - the Isle of Man TT Races. 1987 saw the TT celebrate its 80th anniversary and in 'Action Man' you can vividly see how, 80 years on, the TT lost none of the magic for which it has always enjoyed worldwide renown.

I met Steve a good few times and always had time for people, what a lovely guy but most of all he was one of the best riders I've ever had the privilege to Watch you went far too soon RIP steve
Hizzy was one of the most naturally gifted riders to ever swing his leg over a bike. Won on loads of different machines. Inch-perfect Knowledge of the course.
Facts
I remember it well, we stayed in the same hotel, The Doric on Douglas sea front, as Steve. Good memories, great times.
Hizzy = Class !
Definitely bucket list to see 2 smokers around there at the classic TT someday
Legend!!!
Brilliant rider, on any bike.
Saw the sign for Hizzy's cairn yesterday on the A7...need to pay it a visit this summer!
112mph avg lap in 1987. I think that took more balls the the lads today doing 130mph given the lack of tech in 87.
