There's just so many great vantage points that you just have to keep going back to view from them all. Sadly I've only been twice as finances haven't been able to stretch to any more.
Enjoy.
I been fortunate enough to have made it 4 times since 2010. I love the practice week before racing officially starts you get some really fast laps as guys are trying their best to be in with a shout.
I did the classics one year and really enjoyed that, but, the TT race week is the best.
Just before you start to drop down Bray Hill by the cross road/ Garage there is a Church opposite and the rector is more than happy for bikers to go into the church yard and view the track over the 4 foot high perimeter wall, you are then a couple of feet from the edge of the track looking right towards the grandstands and left over the crossroads down Bray Hill. And the lovely old ducks in the church will make you a cup of tea or coffee. :kiss
