2001 Isle of Man TT

The 2001 Isle of Man TT races did not take place. It was cancelled because of the outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in the UK in the spring and summer of 2001, and the difficulties of disinfecting 40,000 spectators and competitors (and their motorcycles) to ensure the disease was kept off the island.
