THE Isle of Man TT is back THIS WEEK as some of Britain's top riders race around country lanes at 130mph!
Dubbed by many as the 'world's most dangerous race', the iconic course has claimed the lives of 270 people since its first edition in 1907.

Last year, Northern Irish legend Michael Dunlop broke the record for most wins on the course and is back for more this time around.
Dunlop broke uncle Joey's record of 26 last year with FOUR wins out of seven to take his overall tally to an incredible 29.
There has already been huge drama in the qualifying section with Peter Hickman involved in a major crash.
Hickman is one of the most recognisable faces in the Isle of Man TT and has won 14 races in the last five events.
The BMW rider has since been released from hospital but will not participate in this year's racing.
Here's everything you need to know for the week ahead.
What is the Isle of Man TT?
The annual event sees professional and semi-professional riders race around the Isle of Man in a time-trial.
The 'TT' in the name stands for Tourist Trophy, rather than time trial.
Anyone from any country can apply to race as long as they have a valid National Entrants or FIM Sponsors Licence for Road Racing, plus a driver's licence.
Last week was the qualifying section and this week is the racing.
There are six main events - the Senior TT, Supersport TT, Superbike TT, Superstock TT, Supertwin TT and Sidecar TT - with all roads on the island closed between 9am and 5pm.
The Senior TT is the main attraction and has almost run continuously since 1911.
It was not held due to World War I (1915-19) and World War II (1940-46), then because of foot and mouth disease in 2001, bad weather in 2012 and Covid-19 in 2020 and 2021.
Davey Todd won the race last year.
