Guy Martin

TT favourite Guy Martin has confirmed he's pulled out of this year's racing festival.

In a post on his website he says he fancies a "change of scenery" after racing on the Island for 11 years.

Instead he says he'll be taking part in the Tour Divide - dubbed the toughest pushbike race in the world - which is on at the same time.

Guy says his decision was made during his time in hospital after crashing at the Ulster Grand Prix last year.
