    Can't help but think that if Guy Martin put as much effort into being a bike racer as he does into being a TV personality he might have won a TT or two. You rarely hear of John McGuiness unless riding a Honda somewhere

    Fair enough but John looked happy enough when I ran past his house the other week. Just thought that Guy might rather be remembered for winning 20 TT's than presenting One Man and His Dog

    I might be wrong, but hadn't he tried to win the TT quite a few times before getting a bit distracted by the men from the telly?

    Your probably right. But maybe John just wants it more, who knows really. Guy seems to be having fun and earning some quids along the way though. Only Guy would know for sure.
