Behind the world famous annual Tourist Trophy Race on the Isle of Man

The small, unassuming Isle of Man gets revved up and supersized during the famous annual Tourist Trophy race. This event has been attracting bikers for 100 years, on the longest running and most dangerous motorcycle road race in the world. This documentary captures the excitement and energy of the event, and goes deeper into the culture, people, events, and landscape of this normally tranquil Gaelic island. This film is focused on the action around the race, rather than the race itself. Its appeal therefore is not just for the serious rider, but for people interested in travel documentaries that have a fresh and youthful approach.

What a great documentary. I enjoyed it. I’m definitely going to attend the TT some day in the coming years. I always wanted to go, but this documentary has really given me a bigger passion to go visit this awesome place. I’m hoping to hit the Goodwood Festival of Speed as well. I better start saving now, it’s a long way from America.
