Ian Hutchinson: Testing Times (Part One)
The TT Podcast is back, and in the first episode of the new series, Chris Pritchard and Steve Plater are joined by the only person to have ever won five races in a week at the TT.
Ian ‘Hutchy’ Hutchinson has won 16 times at the Isle of Man TT, but tells Chris and Steve he wasn’t proud of his performance at TT 2022.
Hutchy’s journey into racing is an unusual one. His mum hated two things: rope swings and motorbikes. However, he reveals how he eventually got into riding trials bikes and worked his way up to winning races on the Mountain Course.
With a fair share of low points, resulting in many missed years at the TT, Hutchy reflects on his recoveries from injury and how when he’s not riding, he spends time flying helicopters around the British Isles.
