Around a 37.75 mile lap being strong physically<br />

is important but feeling razor sharp<br />

mentally even more so. For Johnston, a three<br />

time podium finisher at the TT, the benefit of<br />

having had so much time in the saddle this<br />

year will be twofold; he’ll be fitter than ever<br />

but he’ll also be able to deal better with the<br />

mental fatigue of the TT.<br />

“The TT is a tough event. If the weather is<br />

good you can have so many laps in practice<br />

before the racing has even started. Then<br />

you’re hung out mentally and physically.<br />

There’s pressure all the time. You need to go<br />

in there with a good mentality. You have to be<br />

strong and fit.”<br />
