Great video! I went there during the practice week and had a very similiar experience with the weather. You have to see the bikes fly by once in your life!
The hubs and I also used Duke Village this year - 3:44 2024 - great accommodation , great food and wonderful staff! Too bad it rained so much this year . That being said, for our first time to the iconic race had a wonderful time . We were able to get some photos with more than one of the riders and even got a free lift home from a local one evening! Good stuff ! Spent a fair amount of time looking to TH-cam for info and there just wasn’t enough about Duke travel as far as what to expect so I’m happy to see what you have here in your video!
Great real life vid 👍🏻 It's a really nice island to visit, even outside of TT week - the speed the racers go on those roads is insane, it doesn't seem possible.....all those boy racers who think they're fast, go to the TT and feel humbled 😮
I'm lucky I have famliy in the IoM so get to see most of the racing, TT, Southern 100 and Manx GP. Recomend you go to see the Souther 100 a lot less people so the roads are empty the racing is excellent round the Billown course. Once you been to the TT you will always want to go back.
Great insight from your visit. You're right about booking early, if going by bike you need to book ferry tickets a year in advance. Next year's tickets went on sale on May 20th and probably sold out within a day or so. This year's weather wasn't great so it's best to try and go for the full week or so to allow for delays. If the weather plays ball there's time off to explore the island. The videos and tv coverage are brilliant but nothing beats actually being there.

Get yourself to the NW200 in Northern Ireland you will love it
Great voice over, you sound really natural. I find that the hardest part 😝
The Race dates are fixed, always have been. 1st Sunday in June is always Mad Sunday

Good shout, I should have said - £1350 each.

Cash is king 🙌

Oh, OK then it was £1,350. Probably going up next year, you know how it goes 😏
I only carry cash, if you don't take cash you don't get my business 🤷
