Another TT over for us which was dry ,wet ,dry ,wet We still had a great laugh and watched some fantastic racing The senior race on Friday was cancelled till Saturday and then altogether due to wet roads which is the first time ever in the history of the races .
Ferries booked again for next year so roll on TT 2013
My first TT experience and only one word for it........EPIC! and that goes for everything....the racing, the racers(talented doesn't begin to describe these guys), the course, the atmosphere around the paddock, my first run over the mountain, and best of all....spending time with like minded friends + 45,000 other bikers. A definite date in my calendar for next year.

Yeah we sure did dude , plenty laughs an great fun on the bikes , good grub an some rehydrating too , oh an the on track entertainment from the worlds best road racers was as awesome as it always has been in the past , all 12 of us had a great time , it was just a pity some of our TT regulars weren't with us too (you all know who you are) , the weather wasn't the best but you just have to accept that over there sometimes
