I was there last year with my wife, was truly great!
My friend was dying of envy and kept saying that he wanted to go next year.
So, our plan (me and my mates...) was to ride our bikes from the north of Sweden to the Island for the 2012 TT, me on my Honda and he on his Bandit 1200.
However, its not gonna happen now as he dropped out of it all, and he is going on a weeks vacation to the Greece with his missus and kids instead...  ???

Oh well...

Hey Dan, if you do make it and need a stop over near to Liverpool, give me a shout.

I wonder which HondaFreak is lurking, is it Peter or that tight arse John. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Hey John,
Looking forward to meeting you (finally), the Pre TT is up first and as its on my doorstep it would be rude not to pop to the Paddock or into Castletown for a few beers. Do you have a 'regular' watering hole when your here?

As for the Manx, well I will be up at the Grandstand daily, I have also convinced Toffa and Steph to come over, I'm giving him a run on the parade lap to see how he feels about the Mountain Course... Who knows...?

Anyway, definitely looking forward to putting a face to the voice ;o)

Regards,
A

well you have certainly gone for an experienced rider , god knows how many quick laps chris has done round the island  . i should just be able to hear those exhausts from my house !
yes i recon richard will be ok , couple of slow laps to get his eye in then back at it like a dog eating beetroot ! [ the same as normal ]  was a shame about that crash i would have loved to have seen him at brands icgp against bishop , Edward's , heal and simpson .

I'll be at the Manx GP along with specweld. Doing Jurby, Parade lap and the Ramsey Sprint.
Stockers(IOMTT) is racing I believe. Should be a fun filled exciting meet.
See you all there!!! :) ;) :) ;) :D
