The oldest motorised event in the world still going strong. IOM is on the bucket list for me, either the main event in
june or the Manx GP later in the year. I like the look of the Manx GP because it runs all the older bikes including the strokers
Heres my other toy, a tribute bike to the greatest comeback all time
Mike Hailwood at IOM 1978. Mike saved Ducati from extinction with that win.

if there's one thing dad likes more than serenity… it's a two stroke engine on full throttle!

My mother actually lived in Bride, on the IOM, and despite constant begging, threatening , sulking, whatever, I couldn't con her into getting me a 'local' entry.( entries were seriously oversubscribed, and there was usually a 3 or 4 year wait to get in) Done a few hot laps around there on a stock R1 though, and even that was frightening ! TT week is like a bike circus, and an awesome spectacle, and the locals all get behind it. Even the old biddies are discussing form as they wait in the supermarket checkout queue's ! We could sit in deckchairs in the front yard (behind a solid stone wall !) and watch the bikes howl past at around the 240kph mark, fkn wild ! Unfortunately, mother has moved back to the mainland now, so I've lost that option to spectate front row ! Damn !
