HM Plant Honda riders are gearing up for the TT races this coming weekend.

John McGuinness, Keith Amor and Michael Rutter have been practising at the track in preparation for the events.

Lap times were affected by rain earlier in the week but conditions are set to improve for the latter half of this week.

In the second practice session, Rutter achieved a lap time of 18 minutes 2.91 seconds, while Amor completed the lap in 17 minutes 57.63 seconds and McGuinness finished in 18 minutes 01.9 seconds.

The riders have said they are looking forward to improving their lap times now the warmer weather has set in, drying up potentially problematic damp patches on the course.

Rutter commented: "I am really enjoying myself, love the HM Plant Honda Fireblade and it's going really well for me."

Bike insurance policyholders attending the TT races will be able to watch the action first hand, as well as take in music from top acts, comedy shows, the TT bike show in Laxey and other attractions such as the Ramsey Sprints and Peel Day.

The TT races and events are set to come to a close on June 11th.
