A heritage and wellbeing expert in the UK says she’s used virtual reality to give an elderly man the chance to ride the TT course once more.
Helen Wallbridge of Southampton posted about the experience on LinkedIn after interviewing a bike fan about his memories of visiting the races.
She says she tracked down a 360-degree video filmed by a rider on a lap and streamed it through a headset to provide an immersive experience.
And Helen added they were both emotional afterwards, when he said “I always wanted to do it one more time, and now I have”.
