Not a patch on the Isle of Man.
That's not fair as it's quite different to the Isle of Man, the TT/Manx has become a festival with plenty away from the racing. The NW200 is all about the racing, which the locals embrace. Having seen both, I felt the NW was even more spectacular than the TT (University 200mph 4 abreast braking for the bend!!).
OP - good on you, we're doing the Southern 100 this year so still getting our Island fix - despite saying the above, will be interesting to see the IOM outside of the main festivals.
Yep, going, will be 5th time ,previously combined with a loop of Southern Ireland and ride up for the weekend's racing, and a great party atmosphere all weekend followed by a swift jaunt back to Dublin for a Sunday night there,on previous excursions.
No point saying "not as good as the TT" - it's not the TT, it's road racing in Northern Ireland with pure Guinness assistance and some ace roads to play on,without all the "palava" of the TT.... always a great craic !
