The Morecambe Missile will be raising money for a local charity when he brings his nationwide show to town.

Motorcycle ace John McGuinness will be hosting 100 and Counting – an evening of insight when he will discuss his career in racing, answer questions and give onboard commentary of a lap of the Isle of Man TT – at The Platform on September 28.

Accompanied by world class racer and veteran presenter, James Whitham, the pair will look over John’s 100 TT starts, recounting tales and incidents along the track and analysing video footage of his races. There will also be a lap of the TT displayed, with on board commentary by John and with input from James before an audience Q&A and the chance to meet the Morecambe Missile himself after the event.
