Noise, thrills, excitement, spectacular sights and a wide variety of activities and entertainment all across the Isle of Man are what fans can expect at the 2012 Isle of Man TT.
There is nothing on Earth quite like the Isle of Man TT 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 TT trophy is to sit with the gods.
TT 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.
Look out for the only International Isle of Man TT publication which will be on sale from May 17th, priced at just £7.99. Once more Island Racer will be giving away a free DVD for all readers from the best in the business – Duke – worth £16.99. See also the Isle of Man image gallery from the Mortons Archive.
