Basically as the title suggests, who is going to the TT races this year, I know we have various people from the org on the boat, mainly on Monday from memory. Plus I think Luckypants is there for week?? Might be wrong there...

Plus is anyone going to have a bike over there, a mad plan might have formed in the garage of doom, where by YC and I think two SV's might fit on the Fyne Pioneer for a quick trip over for mad Sunday... It would certainly make it a very mad Sunday... Still if anyone else has a bike over there and wants to have a bimble round, then let us know.

Where are you going to be, Douglas or are you going to try and get out on the course somewhere?

A messed up booking by our B&B means we lost out this year. Apparently we are 'definitely booked' for next year, but that is what they said last year.... :mad:

So not going... :(:(

Thats cwap! Where were you staying, at the south end of the island? Did you have ferry tickets booked?

We still have a few spaces on the Monday when YC and Orose are going. Not sure when PunyXpress is going of the top of my head, but he has booked with us too.

We will probably just stick around Douglas, bray hill / quater bridge way.
We've been invited to Gary Johnsons paddock so might pop up to the grandstand aswell.

We are on the early morning ferry from heysham and coming back about 9pm.
Luckily my house is only 5 minutes from heysham though so not a lot of travelling.

Nah no bike. We're flying in.

My stuff is already there on the team truck and the rider liaison officer is picking us up and taking us to our accom.

Couldn't have worked out better actually. Pretty seamless and easy.
