Peter Hickman and IoM to feature in 'Stompcast' episode

TT rider will discuss his background, racing and mental health

TT lap record holder, Peter Hickman, and the Isle of Man is set to feature in an upcoming episode of a podcast which aims to improve physical and mental health.

Over the last few days, Hickman has spent time on Manx shores and has now revealed the reason - he'll be the guest of the 'Stompcast' which has been created and is run by Dr Alex George.

Hickman says the episode will see him talk about 'some of the many things the great Isle of Man has to offer' as well as some of his background, mental health in sports and the Isle of Man TT Races.

The host of 'Stompcast', Dr Alex George, is a UK Ambassador for Mental Health and the series sees him speak with different guests on different topics whilst out walking.

On his official podcast website, Dr George says the reason for creating it is that 'our mind and body can be transformed through the simple act of walking'.

The episode featuring Hickman is expected to be released early next month.
