- The first video in a series shot by Red Torpedo. We sat down with each of our Red Riders, to see what makes them tick.
In this weeks video we talk to John McGuinness about how he came to the world of motorbike racing, and how his father putting him in a hedge on the Isle of Man led to the making of a legend.
For next weeks rider interview make sure to like this video and subscribe, to see the video as it drops. - กีฬา
LEGEND. And humble. Got to love John.
John McPint is the most lovable racer of all time...I believed he deserves the title living legend of the TT. Down to earth..humble...against the background of what he had achieved at the TT. PHENOMENAL.
John McGuinness and Joey Dunlop are the two Legends of the TT. Both are cut from the same cloth, they both love the race, going to the edge, and facing that drive for more within themselves, while being who they are the average guy. Just waiting for John's next TT win!
TT racers are the most talented and hard core bike racers ever!!
Up there with Joey Dunlop, all these guys are SUPERHUMANS. RESPECT. 🏍
Amazing guy very modest and a true picture of a genuine hunan being.
If carlsberg did super bike riders 😂
Great interview, a very talented rider, probably the best roadracer in the world.
John Mcguinness is my hero and I live in Alabama. His courage is amazing and anyone else that competes at the IOM they all obviously have nerves of titanium.
Me too bro!!
Four years ago and still no sign of giving up. At 50 now! God bless you John Mcguinness !!
I could listen to John all day , week ,year , so down to earth ,give praise where due his dad (dad's get the blame always) but give John his due, he has worked hard on and off the track giving us so many great memories an still more to come❤️🦂
Great video, if carlsberg did motorcycle racers,,,,,, it would be John Mcarlsburg!! Fantastic rider and ambassador TOP MAN never get tired of listening and watching this man.
I love his just woke up look! Absolutely love this guy!
So do we! G.O.A.T!!
John...
What a man!
Adapts to any surface, any bike, any weather.
He must be close to the perfect motorbike racer?
Wish him good luck from Norway, whatever he desides to do.
If you finish last here , your a winner in my books , cheers shane uk 🇬🇧,,, I’ve ridden the mountain section balls out
This is a great Man right here...so much God given talent and humble...still Riding a 4 year old Fireblade and roasting Everyone....does zero physical prep for races thats amazing and his God given gifts...a.true warrior.lost a friend killed, friends dad get on that Bike John!!!
When it's in your blood John, it's hard to make the break, look at Mike Hailwood he left to go Car racing ! but he came back, just the same as you he loved the camaraderie, I have been watching bike racing since the 50s, when your in the paddock it's like no where else! and the riders from club racing to MotoGp they are one of a kind.
Brilliant, honest, down to earth interview. Nothing left to prove !
We don't think he will be hanging up his leathers any time soon though!
emotional at the end , says it all
Such respect for these guys. Not only because the prove themselves on the road, but the way they handle themselves off the road. True sportsman pushing the limits, and motorcycles not political agendas.
Every road racer we know is the same. . . Completely bonkers on track. . . Could not be more dow to earth off it. So much love and respect for all of them.
A true ambassador for the sport of road racing and man who has been there and done it great all round bloke and humble with it
Follow him for years and he gives good and honest interviews every time
Not only a racer, he is a man!
A true tt legend mcguiness.... One of the first riders I think of if tt crops up in convo,s etc... Truly amazing fella.... God bless ya and ya family buddy ride safe... Blessings....
Your a legend John. Respect
One of the best i have every seen.
John we love you man!!! Dont ever stop until it stops you!!!! Your a great person and your humility is why I admire you.. keep hitting it!!!!
Bikes and racing will always be part of your life.
Road racers. They truly have balls of steel. No margin for error, no run-off areas, no gravel traps. Just some Tecpro barriers and a healthy dose of faith in their own ability!
You’ve got plenty more years John bloody legend!
Brilliant!
Simply the best .
Love this guy!! What a truly great man!!!

Just hard to grasp this nice humble fellow is the same guy as the Gladiator on the bike.
Simply one the greatest TT riders ever if not the greatest
I think he himself, would disagree with being the greatest!!! second greatest yes....
@@lewiscollins1045 fair point my friend ..Joey clearly but John is made from different gravy..
imo I put him above joey, but that's just my opinion.
Suzuki AP50 was my first road bike too,when i was 16 way back in 1979.
@Jog365 Brings back memories..my mate had a yellow FSIE. If memory serves me his Yamie was a bit quicker than my Suzy but he put expansion chambers on his.

I had a purple one back in the day, worth a fortune nowadays 😳 !
You will have had plenty of action behind the bike shed too, then? 💋
redtorpedoclothing
LOL, no l was a good Catholic boy so a late starter🤣🤣 !!
@@peter8084 you were clearly just playing hard to get!!
Legend
Wonder if he mowed the lawn this year. Always watching you from Barbados
RESPECT 😎😏👍👌✊✊✊✊✌
nothing compares !!! if youve never been do it
Honda sport racing.
Powerfull it's amazing.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
"all the practices were damp and sketchy....."
NOPE
I remember wet practice at Roebling and damn near pissing myself at the prospect......all at my just above a walk pace.
cool
Hi i'm from indonesian
In jakarta.
47 podiumes is a bit mental. Glad you're alive take care
What is racing: being able to enjoy a motor bike with out the fear of going to prison lol
He's the best! but could of been better
RIP all the greats who've paid the ultimate price for seeking their dreams. Nobody can know what it would be like to lose someone in this way until it happens. One of the toughest sports in the world. I do not call boxing or those idiots in cages ''sport'' just like horse/dog racing. That is animal cruelty. Nothing more. If your offended, your a part of the problem.
Bollocks the size of coconuts.
Who The fck dislikes this? Just grow up
He needs bmw
Tried to listen. Could only stare at that teeth
He is very handsome and a gentleman, nothing wrong with his teeth, some vain men and women have those teeth that look like headstonesy
