John McGuinness' Profile
15-times TT winning legend John McGuinness first started racing by purchasing a 250cc machine from profits made by selling mussels he’d ‘harvested’ from Morecambe Bay! Over the years John’s talent on 250cc machinery blossomed, before he made the change to 600cc four-stroke machinery. John has been a regular front-runner in the British Supersport and Superstock 1000 Championships, but it’s his mastery of road circuits that has made him one of the most successful competitors and legend around the Isle of Man TT circuit.
