Isle of Man
Just back from a week on the Isle of Man. Brilliant roads and the views are great
 The TT coarse is ace, especially the bit over the mountains with no speed limits  The bit up the west coast it really good too but there are too many 30mph bits.I was pretty lucky with the weather, only got one day of heavy rain. Mostly dry the rest. Bloody windy at times though! made the mountain bit even more interesting  Some pics from the mountain section     This was a really good fast corner. You come down the long straight then there is a tight right hander at the hotel(behind my bike), then the other long straight. I tried to get a pic of it but couldn't fit it in one photo   The paddocks in Douglas  The lighthouse at the Point of Ayre  It was a really cool beach    Peel Castle  Some views down the west coast   The Calf of Man       Maughold Head Lighthouse   The view from the lighthouse back to the island    The QE2 was doing its farewell tour so got some pics but they're not very good. Need a better zoom   Douglas bay as I was leaving     Don't know where this was but thought it was quite cool  Definitely got my moneys worth out of the road attacks, although not as many miles as I'd hoped
