I have an old, unused TT postcard showing a rider airborne over Ballig bridge. It looks like one from the twenties, judging by the large crowds of Hovis-capped spectators spilling onto the road.

Ballaspur and Ballig are sometimes written together in accounts.

Ballagarraghyn Bridge was another famous jump where the bikes would leave the ground for about 20 yards. It is said that, if the jump was still there now, John McG and company might not get back to earth until it was too late to brake for Ballacraine.
