I’ll back that up to, once your hooked that’s it! There is nothing like it. We go every year now, only downside was this year was that they have restricted where you can view from which is what the TT is all about, that is due to insurance reasons. Also I do miss watching the two stroke bikes fly round which they used to have.

As above, I'm glad to hear you had a great time. It certainly is something that all motorcyclists should experience at least once and by the looks of the TV coverage, this year was pretty good.

the weather was kind to us too

we watched the racing from agos leap on the quarterbridge road..then in the evenings we went into town and watched the ITV4 coverage on the big screens in JAKS while supping guinness and enjoying the craic with fellow TT fans

Weather was certainly good, we came back with a bit of a tan anyway! We watched in quite few different places, tend to stick to the inside of course so that you can move about to different viewing points while the roads are closed using the back roads, Kirk Michael for me is one of the best places to watch!

And i must say a big thank you to F308MAN aka Dave who helped me find accomodation in a fantastic location in Douglas.

Off to Le Mans on Thursday so a busy couple of weeks for me!!!

Did anyone watch the David Jeffries documentary on ITV4 last night, was really good, they way he chucked the bike around was fantastic, such a shame.

Didn't go this year, didnt fancy the journey on a 50cc. Just sat and watch it on the telly probably not the same, but there was some good coverage. I'll just wait till next year on a 125!
