Isle of Man TT Legend Is Aiming to Become The Fastest Motorcyclist...In The World

Peter Hickman is a man who knows true speed. After all, he's a 14-time champion around the Snaefell Mountain Course at the Isle of Man TT, the 37-mile motorcycle street course that is the stuff of absolute legend. To race there requires zero fear. To win requires something else entirely. And to win as many times as Hickman, well, the man is freakin' supernatural.

Hickman still holds the lap record for the race course with a time of 16 minutes and 36.115 seconds. That comes to a whopping 136 mph average over a road that's barely as wide as some heavy duty American trucks and lined with trees, stone walls, bushes, drunk motorcycling fans, and mega drops. If you want to not blink or breathe for 16 minutes straight, I suggest you watch Hickman's onboard.
