It's Getting Closer

The Mountain Road will close today as the Department of Infrastructure gets it ready for TT.

It'll shut from the Ramsey Hairpin to the Creg ny Baa Back Road from 7am until 10pm on Thursday.

DOI workers are carrying out repairs to the road, and installing signs in time for the TT festival.

RE: It's Getting Closer
My wife and I are so disappointed not to be coming this year. We've been 2014,2015,2016 and 2017 on our faithful VFR800. Sadly, my (not terribly elderly) mother is in poor health and we've moved her in, so TT 2018 scuppered ! Never mind !

Hope you all have a fabulous time. There is nothing like coming off the boat, and being back on the island again. We have stayed close to Ballacraine for the last 2 years and, being an early bird (wife in bed) I'd do a lap every morning, leaving around 6.30am. Love Ballacraine through Glen Helen, further thru' Kirkmichael, Quarry Bends and Sulby, to coffee in Parliament Square around 7am, and then the old 1998 VFR nudging 140 + up the mountain mile. Great stuff !

Cheers Damon PS. We'll be back !

At least TV and radio coverage is getting better year by year so at least you can keep up. Gutted for you m8. Hope she gets better. We'll add you to our list of "must have a drink for"

Cheers Timmy, and yes, TV coverage is excellent now so will very much look forward to watching it all on the 'box this year
