Isle of Man TT
Dangerous motorcycle competition
The Isle of Man TT is an annual motorcycle race held on the Isle of Man, a small island between Britain and Ireland.
Established in 1907, it runs on public roads that wind through villages, over mountains, and along coastal stretches at extreme speeds.
The course spans roughly 37 miles per lap.
The TT is notorious for its danger—more than 250 riders have died competing—and revered by motorsport enthusiasts as the ultimate test of skill and nerve.
