Manx GP 27-31 August, Steam Packet booked

  1. Really excited - just booked the Steam Packet for a short visit from 27th - 31st August! Planning to ride the 900SS up, around the course a few times (if it's open), and back..

    It's been 16 years since I've been on the Island (for the TT, when I saw Joey Dunlop racing a 400), and I have a couple of friends that now live on the Isle Of Man, one of whom is riding in the 400 Class on 29th August.

    Anyone riding up or on the Manx during this time, feel free to post below or drop me a message, would be pleased to meet up.

    Cheers

  4. Looks like you had good weather, l went to the TT earlier this year and loved the place, all booked for next year already. I must try the Manx as I have a Freind that races also, although he didn't race this year. Nice pictures.
    Lovely island and friendly people.
