What a great run on the coast road in Norn Ireland, try it during the North West 200. So whats next, maybe the Classic Manx Grand Prix? and don't forget to be nice to the Fairies.

The people. Joey. Good times.

The rest of us are merely simians. A truly awesome bit of writing!! I only wish I was as eloquent with my words and fluid with my ink-slinging as you are, then maybe I could share my own TT experience (from 2005).

Would like to go to the IOM someday and ride on those roads, it would top off 50+ years of riding and reading about the Greatest Motorcycle Race in the world. It has to be the most challenging continuing motorsports event in history. An excellent piece, well written and quite informative.

The TT was a truly moving experience; I'm glad I was able to bring a bit of it home to share. Thanks for all the kind words folks!

Gardiner's movie is well worth watching, more than once. I have that, now will buy the book. Thanks that was great.

Well done! That island is definitely on my Bucket list.. I am a bit worried that if I ever do go, I won't come back! Anyone got the Classifieds? Great article. Well done!

That's why people go every year even though it can be difficult to get there. It's soo good it almost defies description although this one was quite good. I believe thatthe TT tops all other motorcycle oriented event. Try to get there you will not be dissappointed. I want to go again since it's the most addictive thing you can do.
