The 60's and 70's was rammed with people from all over the world. Thousands attended. Not sure if the numbers have fallen but it doesn't look as much people attend the TT now? I could be completely wrong, I hope it carries on for another 100 year's!

I think I prefer to watch these boys. The current speeds are dizzying to watch... I have trouble staying upright on the sofa watch Dunlop, Hickman ,McG. 😂. Also I love the look of the old bikes with the long narrow tank, rounded head and short stubby seat and square rear. I might bring my SR 500 to the island some day

I was cleaning today and found a postcard with a photo of Tom, Mike and Bob (all shaking hands) which looks just like the video at 3.07! Amazing.

Not enough credit given to Gary Hocking, in any TT stories. He was up there with SMBH as A Great Rider.

Also worthy of more mention is Tom Phillis who was another exceptional rider.

I agree. I am 75 now. My first visit to the TT was for the 1962 Senior race. Gary Hocking won on the MV. I was just 17 years old. I watched at the bottom of Bray Hill. The sound of the MV and smell of Castrol R oil was unforgettable. Gary retired after his 1962 win but sadly died in a racing car later that year. There is a book available about Gary Hocking called "SOX" (his nickname). Look on E.Bay.

This is the race in which Tom Phillis achieved the first ever lap over 100mph on a bike with a pushrod twin cylinder engine. The bike was the works Norton 500 Domiracer(based on a 500 Dominator road bike) Tom achieved 2 successive laps at over 100mph in this 1961 Senior race.

It sounds as if the engines were running at relatively low revs? Or am I wrong?

I think you will find the Sounds of the bikes have been dubbed in later as the cameras didn't have the facility to record the sounds as they were filmed.

@@robertedwards5184 Its 1961, many cameras could record a soundtrack. in any case most of the bikes were big British single cylinder machines Manx and G50 etc. Tom Phillis rode a 'Dommie Racer' a tuned twin cylinder dominator road bike. just about all the others were Racing bikes, not intended for road use. The sound is genuine

Manx Norton only revved to 7-7500 rpm . Norton states output for the 500 at 51bhp at 7100 rpm.

@@johnduggan218 Agreed John, that was my take, plus, the commentator said that Mike had won three races and the first 100 mph lap on a single. So, the sound was genuine. Norton had it all but were blinkered to the Asian threat. As long as Norton were still winning races they kept turning out the same old Bracebridge Street bangers. Poor management and no real vision for the future. Soichiro Honda showed the world how it was done...
