TT LEGEND John McGuiness was a Castle Combe race track this week, testing with the Honda team in readiness for the Isle of Man race event.

McGuinness races for the Honda Europe factory racing team in road races such as the Isle of Man TT and the North West 200, while on the short tracks he rides for the Padgett's Honda Racing Team in the British Superstock 1000 series.

A rider of vast experience with 20-times Isle of Man TT and six NW200 wins under his belt, McGuinness also boasts a host of short circuit and other international successes, including winning the British 250 Championship in 1999 and riding for the Honda TT Legends Endurance World Championship team from 2011 to 2013.

At the 2013 TT, he secured his 20th TT win when he stormed to victory in the Senior race.

His TT tally now stands at 41 podiums and 20 wins, bettering the feats of Mike Hailwood and second only to the legendary Joey Dunlop.

The Isle of Man TT 2015 will take place from Saturday, May 30 to Friday, June 12.
