Well the Manx is the amateur event.. A training ground for the TT in alot of cases over the years .. Most of the TT riders came through the ranks of the MGP so it might answer you better to realise that and not mock it, these lads are pay big entry fees and riding the exact same circuit so a little bit of respect would be good please .. Hope you enjoy it.. |

"Never been to the Manx
Want to give it a go as like classic racing,
Make a change from the TT
Just as good as TT but more chilled "
I've heard the manx is exactly the same as TT, but less people and more beer
Never done it, but need to |

"Nice to see that we’ve finally changed the format back to 12 days of racing rather than 9!
And the classics are back!"
It's good classic is back but it's so frustrating they keep changing format and dates on a whim  |

"Been looking to change my ferry to earlier but no availability. Need to settle down and travel friday overnight as planned."
We managed to change ours from Thursday to Wednesday 3 weeks ago. Had been looking every day for a while as it's the luck of the draw, not so easy changing it for a van though  |

There was space the other night but at that time I didn't think I could go then when looked again ferry had broken down so all space was being used for those people.
I may just go for Friday afternoon ferry and see if space comes available. If not I'll just get the one I'm booked on. |

Been a great few days, stood up by another Manx guy but still people over here from UK willing to meet. We also have a couple of fab friends here so not all bad. 3 more sleeps then time to head back  |
