Gooseneck
Place
The Gooseneck, at about 26 miles, is a climbing right-hand corner and one of the most popular spectator vantage points on the whole course, since fans can stand very close to the racing line. It has also seen tragedy: fatal accidents occurred here in both 1955 and 1994, coming into and out of the corner. Road widening between the Gooseneck and the 26th Milestone was carried out ahead of the 1939 TT.
