Hi,

You are actually leaving it pretty late to organise a trip to the NW. I booked in November and was told I was lucky to get a room. It books up almost as quickly as the TT. Try Colraine Tourist office for accomodation, they charge a couple of quid for booking, but are probably your best bet. A search on google will get you their email address. As for ferries, the one's coming back on the Sunday are going to be stowed out as well.

I havent actualy been to the MW yet myself, this will be my first time, but if it is anything like the Ulster is should be excellent!

Echo what's been said above. I went a couple of years ago and it's a nightmare trying to find accomadation. If you get the choice, try and get into Portrush or Portstewart rather than Coleraine- they're both on the coast and really nice towns as well.

The highlight for me was the travelling Doctor- he follows the riders around for the first lap and comfortably keeps up with the tail enders on his road RSV Aprillia- bet that wasn't an easy job advert to write..."Doctor needed- must be International standard road racer"!!

Is there any road races in July, its the only month i can really go anywhere...

Curses being a teacher, cant get any time off.

Holyhead - Dunleary Fast Ferry - £75 return for bike+rider. Quote NW 200 through nutt travel.

Anyone recommend a campsite in or around Portrush ? As problems getting B&B.

Best place to stay is Portstewart if you can get it. The Anchor bar there will be a serious party Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights - It's where all the race winners will be on Saturday night.
