Isle of Man TT 2015!
Verfasst: Montag 13. Mai 2013, 12:19
OK I know 2015 is an age away but I can't get there this year (off to the 10th International Bulldog meet in Gustrow, Germany) and next year (2014) we have a big family gathering in June.
So my three sons and I will be going in 2015 and to make it proper we will be sleep in tents (cheap and easy). Anybody interested in joining us? I will do the spade work (UK/Isle of Man) all you will have to do is pay your bit and turn up. If camping is not your thing then hotels, guest houses and lodgings book up years in advance so you should look NOW for 2015.
If you have never been to a TT your life is not complete, it is something you will remember all your life (in a good way). The racing is unbelievable, the company is great, the craic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craic) is tremendous and the beer is very good (and not expensive). It is without doubt the best free show on earth. If you don't or can't go then you must watch the film "Closer to the Edge" especially in 3D.
Oh, and there is Mad Sunday. The roads on the mountain part of the circuit (the race track) are opened up for one way traffic with no speed limit. Very scary with the b_a_l_l_s-out young blades and old-f_a_r_t_s born again biker dreamers but still a full on adrenalin rush (take spare underpants).
Only one other dog on the island last time I went (2011 and it was silver like mine) so we are a select bunch. There is a long fuse on this, think about it.

PS Saw 5 Laverda Jota's, 3 Honda CBX 1000cc (6 cylinder), 4 Vincent HRD Shadows plus some other really trick bikes, a free week long bike show.
