We spent 4 days with Paul Cassidy, an Isle of Man TT Road Racer, as he and his team navigated a TT qualifying week. We documented what it's really like behind the scenes at the world's most dangerous motorsport event.

Really enjoyed that. We travelled from Canada this year to see a few days of racing for the first time. Much respect to Paul and everyone who races. And the marshalls, and the people on the island. Loved every minute of it and can't wait to come back. Just the greatest thing I've ever seen. Words can't describe it when that first bike goes by. Thought i was totally prepared but my mind was blown. TT forever.

Like you, I thought I was prepared. My Dad competed in the 1956 Junior TT and I grew up with with the Isle spoken of in revered tones. My Dads's eyes used to glaze over when he spoke of the Snaefell course. I finally managed to get over there in 2022 when my brother and I buried some of Dad's ashes between Keppel Gate and Kate's Cottage. That first day at the bottom of Bray Hill when John McGuinness flew by... mind totally blown! You can watch hundreds of videos, but until you are trackside you just can't comprehend the magnitude of what these warriors are doing. Don't hesitate- get yourself there before you die. You won't regret it.

Fantastic film and there should be more done with the "little" guys, rather than the McGuiness's and Hicky's of the world. It's the likes of Paul and all those guys at the back end of the paddock that make this event what it is. Roll on 2025 🇮🇲🏍🏁

100% agree, without the 'little guys' the event wouldn't run. Something I find fascinating is the drive and determination to compete in something that, ultimately, yields no tangible reward. Just the reward of being part of something you're deeply passionate about! Really appreciate the comment Micky :)

Sounds like ginge misses quite a few things maybe he should take a bit of time and appreciate the scrutineers and what they find he misses. I know why he is so stressed because he must have at least 5 kids due to using out off date rubbers 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲👍
