Part 1
27th May 2012 until now
Isle of Man
TT Races

We have spent the last 12 nights on the Isle of Man for the TT motorcycle races.  Maurice has enjoyed it immensely (so have the rest of us), well that is until today.  Unfortunately the weather has turned yucky and they postponed the Blue Ribbon race until tomorrow.  Even more unfortunate is that our ferry for England leaves at 8.45am tomorrow morning, so we will miss it completely.  Maurice is devastated but the good news is that we have decided to go to Silverstone for the Moto GP.

There are so many photo's of the bikes and side cars that I am just going to down load a selected few.  If my poor little lap top doesn't explode I may even get a chance to put on some photo's of the beautiful scenery that we have seen.
