Taken from the MGP Riders Association news letter...................


" Manx Grand Prix 2007 gave island tourism a boost by attracting approximately 9000 visitors over the twwo weeek festival. This years event proved to be the most successful in recent years with a 25% increase on last year including almost 3500 bikes"

Has to be good news.
There is currently a public poll running here

Which rates the MGP higher than NW200 Ulster GP and TT

The news letter also features a picture from the 1967 Lightweight Manx of Tom Loughridge
