Fantastic insight to what goes on behind the scenes. Also , lets never forget Dr John Hinds .
Definitely. And for those who don't know there's some great content on YT from various presentations Dr John Hinds did. They are really entertaining, he was a really funny guy on top of everything else.
So much respect
Amen brother. 🤘
beyond words. fabulous. R.I.P. Dr John Hinde
As a paramedic I can assure you that certain incidents stay with you forever and you'll think about it every time you pass that spot.
To live on the IOM and return year after year to be TM takes guts because you're banking away a lot of memories.
Take care of yourself.
The incident at the 33rd he is talking about was Alan bonnar. What a talent he was
If chris and lee had their own show about racing in general it would be giant!😊
TM's are true legends, totally unique skill set, they couldn't be more respected by those that know what they do
Met Jonny at the Manx last year, I was a fresher marshal at Sulby Bridge and Parliament Sq. All the regulars marshals look up to Jonny and the other TM's for obvious reasons. Really humble guy is Jonny but focused on the job. Best Podcast so far.
lee johston down to earth top man
Great podcast and a big thank you to the to the Marshals for everything they do at the Isle of Man TT , and a speedy recovery for you Lee and all the best for your commentating.
Another great guest. What a job they do. Hope Lee can get fit in time for the TT this year.
Breath-taking and unique insight to what goes on behind the scenes. Humbling and thought provoking.
Lee you’ve been so good. Thanks TT Plus.🇦🇺
Pure gold ... simple as.. 10/10
I'm from Douglas, you dudes are heroes, I've seen you go past me, brilliant show thanks, hi from Douglas.
Absolutely amazing so interesting to hear your stories. Dr. John’s gotta be smiling down with pride! Hated to see this one end. Good luck with your recovery Lee! Hope the weather is amazing at the TT and everyone makes it home safe
The best vlog yet…..hats off to Johnny and the rest of the TMs ….the ultimate TT-MGP job….in many bikers minds, but the knowledge and experience and composure needed to do it, is beyond most peoples capacity, hats off to this group of 7 guys who give up their own time to train and prepare themselves for the job….👌🇮🇲👌👍
I was watching from Kirk Michael this TT and a rider pulled in with the back wheel loose and Johnny and the other Marshalls were trying to knock the wheel spindle back with a brush and then a woman came across the field with a hammer and saved the day, and we all clapped Johnny and the other Marshalls. Brilliant day top man. 👍
Seen some stuff as an active marshal but that is @ another level….
Huge praise to the lad & all our travelling marshals 🏁
Thank you Lee. Good luck at the TT.
Great episode, and brilliant insight.Sad to see Lee depart,he offered great perspective on the TT.Hoping to see him back on the bike soon.
Superb insight to what these guys do. Hats off to them all. Love watching them enjoying do their wheelies etc. Their skills both on & off the bike is phenomenal. Well done guys.. Lee has been a great assist to this podcast, puts everyone as ease without trying... I think he should stay. IMO 🥰
I’m gutted to hear Lee is not doing anymore pods, he was excellent 👍
Seconded. They’ve just got to get him on, often. Especially if anything prevents him competing (god forbid).
Good day folks! Back for another season, gonna be bigger than ever! This is an event. Hooraaa.
All the power to these Flying Doctors, they're doing one hell of a job ,and this must be one hard job to do!
🇺🇸 Good morning! This truly defines the phrase “a need for speed”!!! 🏍️💨
These guys aren’t he real unnoticed hero’s during TT fortnight
I think you mean “they are the unnoticed heroes…”
I absolutely agree.
I want Lee to be back on his bike racing, but I also want Lee to stay on as a podcast host. He's been great.
We cant have both, I know
hi to all from australia
Love Steve but Lee is such a natural!!!❤
proud of you we all need to stand with you from NI
Loved it. Great bloke
This was really Great video! It gives a great perspective for people outside of the race. Respect!
That was a fabulous watch/ listen. Absolutely fantastic the TMs ..
Lee Johnston is awesome. Never fails to make me laugh.
brilliant job
Brill insight , I like platter but Johnson’s better !
Top bloke
Who love bikes 🏍️ !
Brilliant podcast guys! Anyone know where Jonny's t-shirt is from? Asking for a friend
I recall that Lee is a real student of the old school bikes and riders. Things that were contemporary for me as a young lad. He’s an unusual fella like that. Some of those old machines were complete sheds compared with what Lee rides today. But crikey, they were fast and little or no rider aids.
My favourite season would be those Suzuki 500 two strokes, so-called “Unrideables”.
I was lucky to be able to touch both actual GP bikes, as Stuart Robinson is so well known to Suzuki GB & they’d lent them to Robinsons Foundry in Canterbury (my local shop).
I don’t know what modern race bikes look like close up. Sounds silly, but the most shocking thing was how tiny those bikes were.
I'm very glad to say I've never seen a fatal crash first hand, and I hope it remains that way.
I have, however, been the first on scene to a toddlers death and the mental impact can be absolutely shattering.
My youngest Brother is a traffic police sergeant, and I know he's had some big battles with mental health when he's attended a particularly nasty fatality.
One which springs to mind was a 12 year old boy who who been climbing warehouses with his mates, and fell a considerable distance when he fell through the thin aluminium sheeting which consitituted the roof.
That poor boy died in my Brothers arms and it tormented him terribly for months afterwards.
Thankfully, an Uncle of ours is a retired fire service chief who has attended countless horrific deaths, and they talked privately and it seems to have helped them both.
My point is, we are all only human, and have real human reactions to horrific scenes and tragedies. It takes a certain sort of strength to work in a job where dealing with tragedies is a frequent occurrence, and it's actually really cool to see the TT community continue to be very open and honest about the realities of our sport, and the stories of the men and women who go to great lengths and who experience horrific tragedies in order to better serve and save our brothers and sisters.
God bless them all.
Lee, I'm not scared. Let's race!
What a great pod cast please keep it up ps love lees input
All modern day warriors. I take my cap off to you all 👍
thanks mate.... but what about the TMs???
Keep wee Lee!
Hands on that geezer are massive good job he’s a travelling marshal rather than a prostate examiner
😂😂 I'll stick to being a TM
Just occurred to me that a half hour whizzed by with only pleasurable thought in my head and heart.
With all the crap that’s happening, this doesn’t happen too often.
Could you clarify what he said about riding during a live race, would he be on the racing line or off it, I missed what he said 🤔
He would be on the racing line
He has to be on the racing line to be at a decent full speed, however he’ll know the level of rider he’s mixing with and where he can get off the racing line to not inhibit the lads….
@@mattwoodpropertyyou never leave the racing line! Unless your crashing or overtaking!
If Lee can't be on his bike he should be on the air.
Get Plater out and Lee in permenantly
Love both guys.
Lee stuffed into the non existent glovebox on a sidecar. Ha ha. He is little.
In tlele in eer in r😅😅😅
Would be foolish to cancel this show. Maybe I had to much wine and misunderstood
you did... we ain't going anywhere... Lee however is. he's back off on his bike.
@@chrispritch yeah I figured it was the booze. Tell Lee go easy at The Northwest! Cheers fellas from Texas
@@chrispritchMaybe tell him there’s a seat near you whenever he’s available if you know what I’m saying.
You’re excellent teeing off one another.
Jim Hunter is my favourite TM
He's my favourite as well
@@JonnyhegI’m my favourite 😁
What happens if the TM crashes? Do they send a TM to him? 🫤
