Women lead record-breaking TT Legacy Lap

Monday, 1 June 2026 07:30

One of the largest legacy laps in memory took place yesterday.

Thousands of bikers turned up at the TT Grandstand on Glencrutchery Road on Sunday for a minute of roaring engine noise.

They were then led away by women for the first time, with the Women Riders World Relay at the head of the parade.

Police say there were 14 miles of bikes travelling around the course for this year's event.

This must have been the biggest Legacy Lap I've seen at a TT. Amazing sight! Videos to follow but here are a few pics for now. #iomtt #isleofmantt #TT2026 1/6 pic.twitter.com/9OufPvI96j
