23-time TT winner still feeling 'bike-fit' and 'strong' at NW200
23-time TT winner John McGuinness says he 'never thinks' about retiring from racing as he begins his campaign at this year's North West 200.
Also a six-time winner around the Triangle circuit, the Morecambe rider slotted into the top-ten in the opening Superbike qualifying session in Northern Ireland today.
He's part of a two-rider lineup for the road racing calendar at Honda Racing UK alongside Dean Harrison who also impressed during this morning's first outing.
Now at 53 years of age, McGuinness told BBC Sport Northern Ireland he still has the fitness and passion to be competing:
