Little Book of Tt by Jon Stroud
There is nothing on Earth quite like the Isle of Man T Races. No other motorcycle race is held on such a challenging track as the 37-mile plus Mountain Course with its seemingly never-ending series of bends, bumps, jumps, stone walls, manhole covers and telegraph poles. The skill, bravery and concentration levels required are immense, with speeds approaching 200mph, and, while difficult to learn and even harder to come first, the rewards for winning on the world famous course are like no other. No other motorsport event can boast more than 100 years of such illustrious history, rich in tradition and legends, and to have your name inscribed on a T trophy is to sit with the gods. T racing captures the imagination in a way no other race can and its sheer spectacle and uniqueness ensures thousands of fans flock to the Island every May and June for their annual fix. No other motorsport event attracts people in great numbers for an entire period of two weeks except the world famous T Races, where fans can revel in the Island s special mix of incredible racing and world class entertainment and all set amongst the beautiful scenery of the Isle of Man. Here in the Little Book of the T you can find everything you need to know about the history, results and riders all in one perfectly packaged publication. Isle of Man T 2017 will take place from Saturday 27 May to Friday 09 June 2017. Split into a two-week festival the racing takes place during the second week with races on Saturday 03 June, Monday 05 June, Wednesday 07 June and Friday 09 June 2017 Official publication with exclusive pictures from the race archives.
