PETER HICKMAN WINS BENNETTS SUPERTWIN TT RACE

Peter Hickman took a stunning Bennetts Supertwin TT victory on Wednesday at the Isle of Man TT, after rival Michael Dunlop was black flagged with one lap to go. 

The race got underway in style with Bennetts customer, Jeffrey, waving the starting flag to Jamie Coward. After lap one it was Dunlop who led the way from Hickman, by under one second, with Lee Johnston second.

After the mandatory pit-stop’s, the battle quickly heated up between the Paton teammates, but on his final lap the Northern Irishman ran in to technical issues, handing the lead to Hickman. 

The BikeSocial ambassador then controlled the lead and crossed the line with heaps of time to spare, he was joined on the podium by Lee Johnston and Paul Jordan, who achieved his first TT podium.

The trio were joined on the podium by Bennetts customer, Lindsay, who won a BikeSocial membership competition to hand out the winning trophy and garlands.
