I can't complain that there wasn't enough racing.
With so many great vantage points to watch from, we chose Hillberry for the 350cc classic, so we could watch the bikes scream down the hill at
140 mph from Creg-ny-Baa.
They then have a sharp turn beore heading towards the finish line,
a few miles away.
Although the 350cc race was postponed for many hours, due to technical issues with the communication system between the marshal points, they did manage to get in the Formula 1 & 2 race. We hoofed it over the paddock to mingle with riders and bikes as they were preparing themselves for the race.
