Yes mate. The A339 is pretty good. Many a fun overtake. Visibility round the corners still suffering from the typical hedgerows though. I'd like to ride somewhere with big sweeping roads where you can see what's coming round the tight corners so you can take em properly.

I'd be interested mate. Reckon I could get at least one of my mates down here on board too. We've discussed the IOM a few times in passing, but not too seriously. A chilled out camping break would be a good way to have a go without the pressure of the full circuit during open season.
