Under Rated Viewing Points
I have to agree with you David, the bridge at the 27th was a fab place to watch.
Was there for the 1967 Senior along with 3 mates. We only saw two other spectators all day walking up the other side of the course up the mountain mile!
Watching Mike Hailwood fight the Honda, kicking up the dust on the exit EVERY lap and Ago, smooth as you like but with both wheels off the deck while cranked well over, a memory to savour.

This could well be the flyingplumber sounds thread as we could hear the sounds all the way up the mountain mile, and to hear the 50's going up and down the box was fantastic.
I suppose it will now be a no go area now, but we rode our trials bikes up the bank just at the side of the bridge and hid behind the nice soild stone wall. Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin Happy days.
