I would go in a heartbeat but I don't speak the language so it maybe a hard vacation.

Cynthia and I got to go to the TT in 2007. It is not that expensive. Airfair from Cincinnati was about $800 each and lodging was cheep too. You can do a week for under $2000 easy. We are going to go to the Manx in 2013, vintage bikes are cool!

You know why they walk so funny?

Cause their balls are so big, they can't stand upright! :sarcastic:

Good luck with accommodation if you're going for the 2013 races.

 We have friends that live on the course, in Glen Vine about 4 miles from the start. Guy Martin's great fire ball crash in 2010 was just about in their front yard. I have some Manx family history too!
