Eight non-stop laps
Forget your four-lap dashes. In 1957, 41-year old Arthur Wheeler rode the eight-lap Senior TT non-stop on the 500 Guzzi single. With around eight gallons of petrol aboard to start with, it must have been interesting pulling up for Quarter Bridge on the first lap! Arthurs Island career spanned from the 1937 Manx, through many TT rides, to the 1989 Classic MGP
