Holiday @ Isle of Man T.T.
Hi all; this is a selection of pix from Celticangel and my trip to the Isle of Man for the T.T. racing.....Bikes, landmarks and fun stuff..... but NO naughty ones! (Not YET, anyway!!)
Hope you like them
DM & CA
This is the 3rd place rider of the first race (Formula 1) coming up the lane to the pits - they get so close you can talk to them, if you want!

This is a view from the hill at the side of "The Bungalow"... an 80-90mph left-right flick which exits over tram lines ~ NOT fun in the wet!

The big bikes are putting out between 150-190 bhp..... this is the 1 horsepower form of transport!!

We were walking along the Prom in Douglas one night, and saw this!! (It's a Kawasaki ZX-12R, for anyone who's interested!)
The dark patch on the left of the bike is a mix of oil, coolant and water..... the owner REALLY did a number on this!!
