For me though, I'm feeling a much greater affinity to the manx and all it brings.

Fwiw, i cannot imagine no TT, it's essential to all us bikers, it's our mecca. I'll always say, if you've never been to the TT, you've never seen a true motorbike race. It really is something very special.

Everybody should experience it at least once in their lives. I've been lucky enough to attend many many TT 's and they've been the best experiences of my life.

Best way i can sum it up is i get the same buzz from the manx.

Just a thought, but if you have the time / funds, it may be worth thinking about a long weekend at the very beginning of the event.  You could take in the Pre-TT Classic at Billown and get 2-3 days TT practice.  And do the Manx of course!

If it gets to a point where I can't do the whole thing then that's certainly what I'd do.
