I used to Love Standing up on the side of Snafell above the Veranda and watch the Guys coming out of the Mountain Box and nearly all the way to Brandywell only going out of sight into the Bungalow itself. The sound was the spectacle back then. But for me i have two favourite places the Bottom of Bray Hill and Cronk na Mona especially the fast Guys
As a Rider i love it when i can get a section just right roll on MGP 2008... All the best one and all Irish Ago......

This is great stuff AGO,
The Mountain. No matter were I go t I always end up back on the Mountain. I haven't walked your walk anti clockwise,only as far as the Bungalow Bridge.
Its each to their own I know (that's why I posted this topic) but I love the isolation of it, just you (and mates) and the riders. And on a beautiful day well for me its tops.
When its just been me and the riders on a isolated stretch, and you get two or three dicing together and you can actually see the determination on their faces, I have to admit I get the weirdest of sensations, cant explain it but that's the TT.
