One of my fave ac dc tracks, could not think of a better adrenalin fuelled vid to link it to.

Mad men all of them.

Life`s great.

for anyone interested in biking, such a brilliant atmosphere.

Nice finds, Chris & Steve
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

I'm off to the Classic TT in a couple of weeks, partly as a taster of IoM and with a view to going to the TT (probably 2019). It's on the bucket list.

You'll find the Manx GP (sorry the "Classic TT" now they've let all the professional riders in), a much more relaxed event.
About half as many visitors to the Island means you can get a meal or a pint at a bar with out queueing for hours.
Roads are less manic too with less idiots trying to kill themselves and anyone else who gets in their way.
More classic and vintage bikes on the road too if that's of interest.
The main benefit though is wherever you watch from, it's easier to get a good view and not be peering over a crowd 6 deep.

That's backs up totally what a friend of ours says - he usually does the TT, but prefers the Manx GP for the exact same reasons John's pointed out.
