IOM TT
« on: 21 March 2014, 05:29:07 pm »
So who's all going this year? Anyone? No-one? If so where are you staying and arriving?


   I have a homestay in Kirk Michael from 28th May till 8th June and doing a spot of marshalling....

I think I'm going to the classics this year rather than the main event

five of us going over - my fourth year - 3 of us in Homestay just out of Ramsey. Just hope I don't regret going on Fazer Thou rather than my usual GSXR600SRAD as I love a bit of scratchin'  :lol

Kitcrazy, if you want to go look at the homestay options, good pricing and you wont get ripped off.

 Always a good place to start.

Kitcrazy - tried the camping first year, but apart from crap site management (Douglas RFC) it were blooooody freezing. Even in June the dew was freezing on the flysheet FFS.


Couldn't get in B&B anywhere, so we went Homestay in 2012 and haven't looked back.......

I think this will be my 20th visit to the tt since 1979,i just booked with the steam packet going on the 23rd may &  stopping for 5 nights for £128<bike+2,its only for the practise but I don't think I want to be there for the races as its get a bit crowded & don't forget you got the pre tt classic bikes on the Billown circuit on the 23,24 & 26th may,i should have some self catering sorted out today £60-£75 a night,i also went to classic/manx races last August for the 1st time & its just as good as the tt maybe even better!,but from want I remember I think we paid around £160 for the ferry  for  practise week but its take place in the main holiday weeks so they jack up the prices a bit

don't know if many folks are aware of it yet, but you can now get day return flights from Robin Hood airport, Doncaster. So if you live in that area you don't need to go to Liverpool for a flight.
