On his day, there is no one better than Bruce Anstey when it comes to flat out, committed racing.
The New Zealand veteran proved it once again during the 2012 Isle of Man TT, taking a hard-earned victory in the first Supersport race by a margin of just 0.77 of a second from Cameron Donald - the second closest finish in TT history.
In this stunning photo by leading road race photographer Stephen Davison, Anstey is seen powering the Padgetts Honda supersport machine through St Ninian's onto another lap as he heads to TT win number nine.
