Now TT is done and dusted it's time to look forward to Manx GP and Classic. We arrived Thursday before the bank holiday Monday and leave the following Thursday, so 7 days on the Rock for us.

Well the Manx is the amateur event.. A training ground for the TT in alot of cases over the years .. Most of the TT riders came through the ranks of the MGP so it might answer you better to realise that and not mock it, these lads are pay big entry fees and riding the exact same circuit so a little bit of respect would be good please .. Hope you enjoy it..

There was space the other night but at that time I didn't think I could go then when looked again ferry had broken down so all space was being used for those people.

I may just go for Friday afternoon ferry and see if space comes available. If not I'll just get the one I'm booked on.
