The Izzle of Manizzle
 
I'd like to go to the Isle of Man from the 2nd Aug to the 5th. Anybody got some experience of good ferries/campsites/B&B's/brothels? I'd also like to do an unofficial lap of the TT if thats possible?

Any other info would be nice too!

And of course, anybody that would like to come, you're more than welcome!


Chefs- please put this thread somewhere else if not in the appropriate place

campsite peel is the best
un offical laps of the course are easy and the course is obvious and well signposted the mountain section is the no speed limit area, and mucho fun
boats from liverpool or haysham both regular and easy to book

the weekend we filmed that video there was me, dave preston and irksie all staying at manxmatt34's house. The second time was the very same campsite at peel :)

Point B on the map: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&so...6&ie=UTF8&z=12

Make sure you head down the south of the island to the calf of man - very pretty and I never knew there was all the rest of the island to explore :D

dave numbers did this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsuNBkENjkg for when a few of us went over in may :D proper good weekend. In that video there's a bit where I was riding daves bike and loomed towards the verge - about 12 seconds in. It's only there for a flash but it caught me out going over a blind crest where it looked like the road stretched off into the distance, only to find that there was actually a sharp right-left chicane connecting up with the distance...
