1986 Isle of Man TT

The 1986 Isle of Man TT was held from 31 May to 6 June 1986 on the Snaefell Mountain Course on the Isle of Man. The weather severely disrupted the programme, shaking up the races and producing some unexpected, but worthy, wins.[1]

Four riders tragically lost their lives: Ian Ogden and Alan Jarvis died in training and Andy Cooper died in the Senior TT race at Ballig. Gene McDonnell lost his life in what has been described as "the most horrific accident ever witnessed at the TT", when a horse was startled by a helicopter, jumped into the road and collided with McDonnell. Both horse and rider were killed instantly.[2]
