100mph TT lap anniversary celebrations

Classic TT organisers say they'll be turning the clock back 60 years next August - to celebrate the first 100mph lap of the course.

Scotsman Bob McIntyre first recorded a 100mph lap around the TT Course when he won the 1957 Senior TT Race.
 
To mark the occasion Michael Dunlop is planning a tribute lap on Saturday, August 26th, during the Classic TT festival.
 
He'll ride the lap in replica kit on an identical Gilera bike which has been meticulously recreated.
