AMA champion hoping to raise profile of three-wheelers
Sidecars are firmly embedded into the foundations of the TT races and there's hopes the spirit of the three-wheelers can be translated across the pond.
That's according to Larry Coleman - a three-time AMA national sidecar champion and AMA hall of fame member in the USA - who's visiting this year's racing fortnight.
He's on Island for a third time with the aim of providing more exposure of sidecar racing in the United States.
Mr Coleman says right now on the other side of Atlantic they're viewed slightly differently:
Rugby: Manx club's passionate plea for new players
Football: Castletown beat southern rivals to go top of Division 2
Rugby: Douglas continue strong run at Birkenhead Park
Hockey: Valkyrs B move to the top of Mixed Division One
Ravens go three unbeaten with win at City of Liverpool
