Guy Martin returns for Isle of Man TT

Honda has dropped a bombshell by signing up Guy Martin ahead of the North West 200 and Isle on Man TT in the spring.

After a few years away being a TV star and Wolverine lookalike, Guy is to partner John McGuinness on the Fireblade.

Guy said: "I didn’t want to grow old regretting not giving the Honda a go and the more time passes since making the decision, the more time I’ve thought it is the right decision."

McPint will be looking to add to his 23 wins - but more importantly recapturing the outright lap record which was stolen by Michael Dunlop las year (as well as Dunlop Jr taking the record for the Superbike, Supersport and Senior TTs).

He said: "I, of course, would like another TT win and I would quite like my lap record back! I always say when it’s broken that the lads are just borrowing it and I hope this year that this is the case."
