CDM2018 4 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 I work every year in IOM I usually take ferry but drive my company car the roads are very thrilling as generally you tend to use the TT routes especially those over the mountain pass going from Douglas to Ramsey a few guys on TLF go regular for a blast in their Lotus cars or other makes and proclaim a fab time while the TT routes are not speed restricted when you hit the towns/villages there can be brutal speed cameras so be warned best avoid TT time as the place is normally stacked with visitors etc I tend to go either late summer or October Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PJT 61 Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 What use is a godson like that if you can’t get door to door chopper service. Harness the car underneath, jobs a good’en! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CDM2018 4 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Just check what flights are available ? There used to be flights from East Mids which was axed then I think Birmingham went same way which leave Liverpool or Manchester or London and if you need to drive to north west might as well carry on to ferry port ?

Brian Birtwhistle 3 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 No TT or Classic TT this year, mores the pity. The roads over there are great, unless your son has a decent car you can commandeer you will wish you were in't Lotus Quote Link to post Share on other sites
