Thanks for the info scaramanga. I agree that both meetings are superb in their own right.

Iv`e been going to the TT  since 1967 and I dare say I wll go next year, but just for a couple of days, and then do the southern 100 as I`ve heard such good reports about it. It may also give me the chance to do a complete lap of the TT course without the mountain been closed.....lol

Thanks again
