"Is there much threesome scene in the island for TT? Only went last year for the first time, loved the island and roads, not to mention the people. However left thinking to add to the adrenaline would love to have fun with a couple and never tried. Met one couple and the wife being very pretty, they were a lovely couple. The wife did place her hands on me a few times but honestly the practice session was on so my mind actually just was mesmerised by the speed🤣" We've managed one or two meets at TT, not an easy fete to find people and Manx folk it's nearly impossible as they are so apprehensive. | |||

"Such a shame honestly whats better than bikes and sex… nothing else that I could think of. Sometimes though its very difficult to know if a couple would even want to have a third. In reality there isn’t any tell tale signs." If you press +quote when replying to someones post they will know who you are replying to. Reading profiles,Communication and interaction is the only way you will know if a couple would be interested, the tell tale signs is in what reply you get. | |||

"We are doing TT 2026 a little different from previous years. We have stopped with a mate in Douglas for many years taking the bike on the ferry. 2026 we are putting the bike in the back of our newly converted campervan and becoming nomads for 16 days. "Well we have just got round to trying the bike for size in the back of the van. Had it in before the conversion so we knew it goes in, BUT... The space between kitchen unit and shower room is to narrow to fit the bike in forward due to the wide tank and handle bars. It will have to go in backwards. So, a winch has now been fitted behind bulkhead to gently pull the bike up the bike ramp backwards. This weekend will be the test fit, wish us luck | |||

"Is it not better to put it on a bike rack? At least that way you'll be able to sleep in the van when travelling if needed" The bike will come out of the van and the bed lowered to sleep in, not much point having a campervan if you can't sleep in it. Wouldn't like to try and get a Tiger 900 onto a bike rack  | |||

"I know that I'm way too late for the 2026 TT, but at what point do/can you start booking the ferry for 2027? And if you want to go for the fortnight what is best crossing days/times ie book a day or two before it all kicks off, then the same for the ferry home. Im trying to get a couple of friends to join me, but we all live in different parts of the country so it's a bit like herding cats to get things organised." We booked for 2026 TT the week before 2025 TT. The ferry company releases all the sailing at 8.30am the Monday before practice week. Logging onto their site can take you all morning. You have to be dedicated and patient. When you eventually get onto the booking page enter the days and times you want to go and come back. All about having your date options ready before you log in so you can get it done swiftly, you don't want to get logged out due to you taking to long and dithering. You pay a deposit, usually £90 per booking, then the balance is sent to you November and paid before the end of February. We have just paid our balance today for TT 2026. Hope that helps | |||

All about having your date options ready before you log in so you can get it done swiftly, you don't want to get logged out due to you taking to long and dithering. You pay a deposit, usually £90 per booking, then the balance is sent to you November and paid before the end of February. We have just paid our balance today for TT 2026. Hope that helps "That is very useful to know thank you. How much were the tickets in the end as when I looked last year it was £90 deposit both ways, with them to decide the final price around now. | |||

" Can't take caravans to the Island, only if you are a race team with permissions "Possibly at TT time, but the ferry DOES take caravans the rest of the year. I know people who book to take larger vehicles over a week or so before the restrictions kick in, park them up with a local contact, then come back as foot passenger to the UK then return here as foot passenger for the main event. | |||

"Just read the rules on caravans. Apparently you need a special permit from Isle of Man Government and to be pre-booked onto an official campsite before booking the ferry. Who knew. | |||

"Gosh been going TT for the last 10 years and never realised there was a tread on here. I’m just about to pay the remainder of my ferry tickets. Usually stay at a friends house in Douglas just up from the marina. Keep your eyes out for a very rare RED ZZR1400. Come say hiiiiiiiiiiii" We've been starring threads for TT on here since we got the biker section of the forum started, so that is quite a few years now. Suppose there was a little break during Covid | |||

"We have arranged meets with local guys on practice week a few times but have let us down last minute We have met visitors though which were good fun We got the impression being as it’s a small place out of season people were very cautious about swinging" I listen in to Manx Tadio TT during the course of the festival and in the mornings prior to racing they usually interview the Police, Fire, health care etc abour how theybplan and deal with the gestival. It was mentioned that by the health care workers that they do see a spike in attendance to the sexual health clinic in the weeks following the TT. | |||

Be sure to get on for the sailings when they get released in May for 2027, I think it could be Monday 18th at 8.30am, it's a scramble and can take you all morning to get onto the booking page | |||

"Anyone have expereance going on stand by for the ferry both way from Heysham. Will be traveling in my campervan" Heard good reports of bikes getting on the ferry Standby, could be a little more difficult with a van. Only way is to rock up with no expectations. Fingers crossed | |||

"Was over on the island a few weeks ago. I won’t be going to the TT… overpriced. I’ll watch on the telly. Lovely place however!!! " Yes overpriced, but if you want to go to the worlds best road racing you have to pay to get there. When you are there though it must be the cheapest racing event ever. Where else can you watch the racing for free and only a metre from the road in a lot of places, the bikes nearly blow you off your feet you are that close. So all of that in the mix we think once there, take out the Steam Packet prices, it has to be great value for money. | |||
