Motorcycle Island | John McGuinness & Glenn Irwin talk TT [Ep1 Part 2]

[@garyrobertshaw2202]

Brilliant love John and how he's nursing Glenn through. Top man on every level

[@royalbee9088]

They are a different breed ❤️

[@constantijnblondel7672]

Thanks for another really cool and interesting video. Awesome listening to, and watching the two of them, in particular with Glenn Irwin _before_ the TT (I watched the Before and After Q&A on TTPlus, and I found it striking how it seemed Glenn looked like he had gone through the amount of life experience/personal growth within two weeks that the likes of you and me need a couple of years for). And John seems such an awesome and honest, straight person. I caught myself thinking that I'd love to have a beer with either or both of them and chat about whatever gets their hearts racing _besides_ the TT or racing motorbikes, and in a way that's one of the biggest compliments I can give to anyone. I hope John will have a couple more moments in the sunshine, and I'm looking forward to seeing Glenn over the next two years. And once again, thank you for these videos!

[@Baltimoreborn]

The way he listens to John he gives him all of the respect he deserves and it says so much about him as a man I cannot wait to see these boys in action

[@bennettsbikesocial]

Glenn has clearly done a lot of homework, I was impressed by his knowledge. Cheers, Michael

[@timmehlittleloud2251]

Could watch these two all day long. The progress with the TV is very welcome and the same with what John was saying about them doing their bit to continue making the TT better. I would add that John and the rest of the lads need to be on the media and also talking to the powers that be about the state of the run down areas of the island. Around Douglas it 's absolutely shocking. Nothing ever gets done. Year after year it gets worse. It's like an embarrassing run down council estate in the 70s. Proper infrastructure regeneration can only help put the TT back where it was a few decades ago.

[@garethburningham9467]

Great video, really enjoyed listening to what they both had to say. Can't wait to get back to the Isle of Man, it's been a long three years.

[@paulgill9629]

IAM from Douglas love ya stuff 🏍️🏍️🇮🇲🇮🇲

[@martinkillips180]

Fascinating to hear these guys talk about what they do. I was just checking the number of fatalities at the IOM and also compared it to the fatalities in F1. The TT has during its lifetime had 260 fatalities, whilst F1 has had 52 in total. It shows how real bike racers are. They truly take their lives in their hands when they wind that twist grip back.

John McGuiness "It's like a Sunday afternoon ride, just a unbelievably fast Sunday afternoon ride".. what a fckn LEGEND!!!!!!!

[@andrewmallard2301]

Only ever owned one Honda, but have to admire everything they do in racing.

[@johningle8850]

Great insight and very enjoyable.. thank you for taking the time and trouble and best wishes for a very successful TT.

[@bennettsbikesocial]

Thank you John, not long now! Cheers, Michael

[@logangallagher7050]

The guy's who do this are super human.

[@davidfennessey2727]

Imagine pulling the car over and telling john and Glenn it’s dangerous to drive around the Isle of Man at 40 mph with no seat belts on !!

[@haydenandreoli423]

Thats funny i just noticed they aint wearing em lol

[@Acurvelover]

@@haydenandreoli423 I noticed. I was at the 2000 TT. Incredible. David Jeffries won the Senior which was delayed one day due to rain.

[@maxflight777]

I had the same thought ! 😂

[@ixifutureproof9286]

All the best for Glenn on his debut. He's done all his homework. Now it's time to get on to the start line and *HIT PRINT*

[@sixtysecondsofstephens2386]

Can't wait, really good little series.

[@ChrisPlow]

Great insight and interviews thank you Glad to see regs on kit and using FIM race helmets Also like to see any modern improvements in flags / warnings ‘Change is good’ especially where any safety improvements are concerned no matter how small It’s the greatest race course in the world! just want it to continue…. Ride hard, stay onboard, see you there! ✊🏍💨

[@arzooray3145]

Love ya riders greetings from USA ❤️

[@roberttaggart5757]

Should be on TV free for all to watch

[@forddriver8827]

Thks bennets. Been waiting for this part 2. Glenn is looking good with his BSB results. I predict a top 10 finish & fastest newcomer. All the best Glenn & John, NW200 & TT. Cannot wait! This Sunday, the 24th April, the TT+ broadcast service is available to join. I cannot tell you how excited we are here in Australia, as it is a very expensive exercise to physically go to the Island.

[@bennettsbikesocial]

Hope it was worth the wait! Sorry it took a while but when you've got two cameras plus five GoPros and all that sound to sync, the editing takes aaaages! Cheers, Michael

[@forddriver8827]

@@bennettsbikesocial Not at all Michael, always worth the wait. Thanks for the reply, Bennet's is one of my main sources of 'Roads' information. Hopefully I can find a broadcast of the NW200 on BBC NI. Very difficult to get solid information. All the best, enjoy the race season and look forward to the future podcasts. Cheers, Cameron, Sydney, Australia. PS: Watch this with the Closed Caption/Subtitles on, it is genuinely hilarious.

[@lynnegee6814]

@@forddriver8827 Thanks, I put on subtitles as you said. 🗣 Nor'n Ireland meets Morecambe Lancs - no wonder the transcriber struggled 😄🤣. Go well, stay safe 🇦🇺 🤝🏻 🇬🇧🇮🇲

[@bdeithrick]

He’s looking behind him heading up the mountain and the boys have no belts on. The noise of them hybrid yokes are brutal. I could drive a hybrid yoke

[@bowwave59]

Honda need to get that 30th Anniversary bike in the country . 5 months and still no availability

[@millicentsquirrelhole582]

Does the TT Honda team talk to the works MotoGP Honda teams?

[@Ky0l]

Mint video, great lads, and even if they did have an ego, its bloody warranted. :D

[@yiannishayabusaofficial]

awesome video amazing ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

[@mountainconstructions]

Seats Belts optional when you're a balls to wall road racer

[@Roy750]

Where can I get a Bennetts fleece to wear over my bike jacket please?

[@bennettsbikesocial]

Hi Rhys, I'm afraid we don't sell them, though we do have a range of awesome looking tees coming soon!

[@andrewnorgrove6487]

Those Accents of there's when they get excited they loose me )) all good i get the drift

[@weekendmodeller2740]

Are seatbelts not required in the back of cars in the I.O.M.?

[@savagehamzter8850]

Sarcasm or a real stupid question? Zzzzzz

[@SturdyMoto]

What's a seat belt?

[@bdeithrick]

McPint is in a car. He not on a bike at 190mph. Bet he’s safe as houses But the driver is looking backwards for most of it

[@محمدمهدیمحمدی-ه6ه]

Honda 👑👑👑

[@Team-fabulous]

I'm a bit surprised that the top factory team Honda gave these two rides. Ok John has bags of TT experience but his chances of a big TT win are now slim and Glenn has no TT experience whatsoever. I think there are better choices out there for Honda..

[@maxflight777]

That post 🔝 won’t age well 😂

[@Team-fabulous]

@@maxflight777 hhmmm this could be true, let's see how the TT goes... 🤣🤣🤣

[@regtheripper9789]

Good luck Glen glad you have jon with you to lern from stay safe bro cant wait for you to win one its gonna be a great race god bless.
