Tommy xs Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 yes I know this years TT hasn't started yet but after a bit of interest shown on another thread I thought I'd post this here to see if anyone else fancied it for next year. race week starts 30th may. You would have to book early if your taking your bike, I booked in Jan for this year just for start of practice week and had to sail from Heysham co's Liverpool was booked solid I'm definitely going, may only be another long weekend, hopfully longer will have to wait and see saw a campsite that looked ideal while I was there http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/reviews.asp?revid=5086 cost me about £150 for 2 adults + the bike return on ferry camping is about £10 per night per person anyone interested add your comments below, the more the merrier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEV Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 There's a decent free smart phone app called IOMTT, gives some pretty useful info on the course, campsites, rider results, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy xs Posted October 13, 2013 Author Share Posted October 13, 2013 Gutted just spent the last hour on the steampacket website and can't find a sailing for the TT next year, tried to book for 2 adults + bike from Liverpool, birkenhead & Haysham all sold out I'll try give them a ring tomorrow see if they can sort something, any Idea's anyone ? if anyone going with a big van let me know I was talking to a guy there last year who takes 6 bikes over for people and it pays his sailing, I think you can still book as a foot passenger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator drewpy Posted October 14, 2013 Moderator Share Posted October 14, 2013 I wonder if they release dates in January. It happened when we wanted to go to the North west 200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I still want to go but if there is no room then it seems it might be a good idea to go, not this year, but the next? that would be 2015. Seems the only alternative unless you want to go as a foot passenger. A bit pointless!!! I really wanted to take the bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy xs Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 they don't do van bookings online you have to phone book it, this year when I went there was still plenty of room for vans if anyone has a large van we could all chip in and go as foot passengers might even work out cheeper and would be a handy base at the campsite need a good size van to get about six bikes in though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
