Manx GP 2023
Matt_Harrington:
Last time I went to the TT was in 2012 - the first time the Senior race was cancelled in 105 years! We flew in for a long weekend and never got to see one bike race - not doing that ever again!
Laverda Dave:
The IOM government are killing the TT and the GP by stealth, it's the new way of controlling the population, make travelling anywhere so bad you won't want to do it, numbers decline and eventually they can say people are no longer interested in it so it's cancelled.
This is how the government are killing off the NHS, all by stealth, make it more attractive to go with a private (American) health provider.
Same applies to all forms of motoring, just keep charging to use a bike or car and eventually we'll give up driving.
This country is the worst in Europe, rant over!

Well we went to Heysham early this morning to get to the the front of the standby line, which we achieved. There was maybe 8 or 10 in front of us. They say that it is on a first come first serve basis with everyone given a number (that only they know).
We sat there all day from 8.45 until 15.20 before being told they were taking no standby motorcycles. They let on from standby large vans with trailers, camper vans galore (some huge), all the cars, even a car with a caravan. All these people checked in behind us, so much for first come first served, that is actually just a plain simple lie. They left 10 people with bikes, could they really not fit them on. They would rather load freight than the people they have let down.
We were treated by the staff like naughty school children, no information, no help, just arrogant bad mannered attitude. They even pulled the shutters down on us for trying to get information. I have never ever encountered such an awful company in my entire life. We will go once more tomorrow then they can stick the Isle of Man up there collective ar***s. All for £328 return (how bleedin much??). Frankly I hope their new 78 million pound ship hits a Walney Island windfarm windmill and sinks.
Let this be a heads up for anyone foolish enough to try to go to the Isle of Man in this day and age of piss poor service.

That sounds a total pain in the arse Roy. We're going to BSB at Cadwell on bank holiday Monday, 10 mins ride from us and no ferries involved 😁😁😁
