After all of my years coming to the TT I have to query the intention of trying to increase the attendance at the TT by launching TV programmes and movies showing TT riders in other guises and gimmicks that leave you with migraine and or epilepsy.

I am sure that the 3DTT movie and Guy renovating a boat will certainly attract people but can the Isle of Man cope with an invasion ??

There are few hotels now, the parking needs to be sorted and not everyone wants to camp or homestay.

The roads are gridlocked and from the top of Bray Hill to Quarter Bridge is a nightmare. The number of true vantage spots to which the public can get is reducing and some of the great spectating areas are now closed.

Nobody could love the Island and the TT more than I, but it is now easier to follow practice and racing via the internet.

All you need is an old brake pad soaked in oil being heated over a low flame while you listen to Charlie Lambert and his team and follow individual riders on your laptop with a bottle of wine or beer sittiing in your favourite chair.

These facts may yet bite the IOM on the bum.

Of course, I'm booked to come, as usual, but parking has been really bad for a few years now and I think it is a priority to resolve this, especially since this is the Centenary year of the Mountain Circuit.

Yes, I drive a car but some bikes are parked across car spots, effectively using up space for a four wheeled vehicle with a two wheeler plonked diagonally.

Could we perhaps have some car spaces divided in half longitudinally with a line so it would be natural to park two bikes in one car space ?

I would like to have some sensible observations on this topic.
