Peter Hickman does not slow down. He hunts you down.
Returning to the 2026 Isle of Man TT after the kind of crash in 2025 that would have made a lesser rider walk away entirely, Hickman came back to the Mountain Course and finished second in the Superbike TT — battling through nerve damage from that crash to beat Michael Dunlop across the line.
The man holds the outright TT lap record at 217.989mph — the fastest average speed ever recorded around 37.73 miles of public road — and watching him close down a rider at full commitment on the Mountain Course is one of the most breathtaking things motorcycle racing has to offer. No run off. No room for error. Just Hickman doing what Hickman does — finding more when everyone else has nothing left to give. There are fast riders at the TT every year. And then there is Peter Hickman.
Could anyone ever touch Hickman around the Mountain Course at his very best?
