Manx GP 2023

Anyone going to the Manx GP this year, or is it only me stupid enough. They have changed the format again this year to feature a mere 5 races all week. It's expensive to get and stay there, works out at about £200 a race. There is practice and qually as well so at least something to watch. Weather looks a bit shit as well.

After my fiasco last year, I won't be going this year.  It's a great atmosphere but as you say, blinking expensive!

What happened last year Matt. I didn't make it in 2022 (first time in over 20 years) as the guy I go with had cancer so we had to cancel at the last minute.

Matt_Harrington:
Roy, I went on my Guzzi T4 and that broke down only to be usurped by my mates R100RT that was terminal. Mine was a fuelling issue that was eventually sorted in time for the return journey! (We pushed the RT to the ferry terminal....)

PS Used to live in Cleveleys many moons ago!

Now that sounds like a proper disaster. So far I haven't had to push onto the ship but last time we hit a freak wave and about 20 bikes went over, mine of course was one of them. New tank on a CB1300 at £1148. Steam Packet paid up for that one.
