I would rather go to watch the Tour de France for the duration than the week at the IOM. If you had a choice, and could only go to one, which one would it be?

done it the TT, would you believe the MC club i was in moaned i wasn't a commited biker cos i missed their rally posted over mad sunday weekend. HUH.

I quit there and then idiots. 2 days in a field in Northants or 10days in the mecca of british motorcycle racing.

You can never get the full effect of the tour, you would only see a little bit then its gone. Traveling all the time.

TT days are wake up, shower off hangover, watch race, drink. As a couple without kiddies me and the wifey had a rare old time, were still surprised we did'nt have a kiddy nine months later, nudge nudge the bikes wasn't the only tank that was running low by the time we got home.

I'm almost tempted to not do the TT again cos it would never be as good.

Yes the tour is a nightmare people camp in their camper vans beside the road for days in advance to get a good spot and it is over in minutes

Don,t know about ferries but the Manx is well worth a look. They,ve rejigged the race schedule & expanded the post classic classes, should be good!
