The lap was to celebrate his historic 5 wins in a week that he achieved at the 2010 TT races, beating Irishman Phillip McCallen’s four in a week. ‘Hutchy’ went out on the Honda 1000cc Superstock machine that he set the first 130mph Superstock lap on and enjoyed the chance of a parade lap around the mountain course. He has had a busy week on the Isle of Man as he also started the Lightweight and Ultra Lightweight race and also signed up for the Isle of Man TT Marshals Association ‘Orange Army’ and marshalled during Wednesday’s Junior MGP race with BSB star Stuart Easton. He was also lined up to present the trophy to the Senior MGP winner later in the day. Ian, who now has 8 TT victories, first competed on the Isle of Man in 2003, winning the newcomers race in the Manx Grand Prix. At the end of his lap Ian commented: “That was the best thing I have ever done. I was gobsmacked by the reception I received around the course from the fans. It was absolutely brilliant to get the chance to do a lap like that.”
