I have been watching this, but can’t wait until Sunday when I get to see it live. It’s my first time back since 1996.

For approx £15 you could also sign up to TT+, which is the live feed or all of the practice sessions and races- even better, you might catch my ugly mug watching them live from Sunday onwards.
I haven't been since the 1980's, so it might be a bit different from how I remember it.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

I've only been twice, once for Hailwood's comeback surprise win in 1978 then again in 1981.

I was smitten with the Ducatis at first, but that wore off over the years.

I've just finished watching final practice, very impressive indeed. Eight out of eight?
It's beginning to look possible...

Thanks Chris. We had a great day watching from the Creg yesterday and then caught up with Tony & Nicole to collect our rucksack. I got duped following the sat nav getting there and ended up two up trial riding on an unmade dusty and rocky road. ImageThe bike preformed pretty well but in absolute filthy now. ImageHere are a couple of shots I took at the Creg. Image

:lol: :lol: I can imagine you were not impressed, and getting your lovely Ducati dirty, it would have been fine if you were on your Montessa 250 by yourself on that rough track :D :D

Tony could possibly clean the bike for you, he's an expert now :lol: :lol:

Many thanks for posting the photo's Duffy 8) 8)

Chris.
