Isle of Man TT

The International Isle of Man TT (Tourist Trophy) races are an annual motorcycle road racing event traditionally held on closed-off public roads on the Isle of Man in the last week of May for practice and the first week of June as race week with many supporting attractions, gatherings and other events taking place.
For many years regarded as the most prestigious and oldest motorcycle race in the world,〔''The Guinness Motorcycle Sport Fact Book'' page 120 by Ian Morrisson Guinness Publishing Ltd (1991) The Bath Press ISBN 0-85112-953-6〕 it has been reported as the most dangerous motorcycle road-race in the world.〔(Isle of Man TT - the world’s most dangerous sporting event ) ''Metro'', May 2013, Retrieved 2014-06-24〕〔(The most dangerous sporting event of earth? ) ''The Guardian'', June 2007.

Retrieved 2014-06-24〕〔(The deadliest race ) stuff.co.nz, Fairfax Media, 21 August 2011, Retrieved 2014-07-08〕 When interviewed by his local newspaper in 2015, 23-times TT winner John McGuinness stated: "The TT is the biggest most dangerous thing for me and I have my family around me for it".〔(TT star fined for taking daughter out of school ) IoM Today, 9 July 2015. Retrieved 16 July 2015〕
The event was part of the FIM Motorcycle Grand Prix World Championship from 19491976 before the Grand Prix-status event was transferred to the United Kingdom after safety concerns over the TT course with factory-contracted riders compulsorily competing, and involving a riders' boycott.〔''TT News – Preview Edition 2012'' page 16-18 Isle of Man Newspapers Ltd (2012) Johnson Press Publishing Bridson & Horrox Publishing Ltd〕 The FIM as ruling body transferred the World Championship round to Silverstone in mainland England as the British Grand Prix from 1977.〔 The TT races continued independently but became part of the TT Formula 1 Championship from 1977 to 1990 to preserve the event's competition status. From 1989 the racing has been developed by the Isle of Man Department of Tourism as the ''Isle of Man TT Festival'', and traditionally concludes on the Friday of race week with the Blue Riband event, the prestigious Senior TT race.
==Description==
The Isle of Man TT (Tourist Trophy) races are run in a time-trial format on public roads closed for racing, with the Road Racing Act 1982 (Isle of Man), an Act of Tynwald, prevailing. Since 1911 the races have been held on the 〔''Official TT Guide 1992'' page 45 Isle of Man Department of Tourism (1992) Mannin Media Publication〕 Snaefell Mountain Course, consisting of a number of public roads forming a clockwise-circuit proceeding through different parts of the island. Normal scheduling allows for races of between one and six laps, depending on the classification.
The ''Oxford Companion to World Sports and Games'' notes:
During race week, the TT races create a carnival atmosphere with picnicking spectators flanking vantage points on the circuit similar to other community festivals in another form of cycle racing — the Tour de Yorkshire and Le Tour de France.
