Traveling to the TT with van + bikes
Hey i'm just looking for some information about taking a transit van with two bikes onto the ferry for the TT next year.

Has anyone ever done this? Is there any restrictions when doing this? Fuel levels in the bikes ect. & when booking do you just book the van or do you need to declare that the bikes are in the van?

Cheers.

Just need to book the van, fuel in the bike tanks should be ok, but no jerry cans etc.

When you get to the ferry port they will ask you to open the back of the van, they will check the chassis numbers on each bike. They also had a good look around my van. It's quick and all done in a very friendly way, routine stuff.
