I think following last years centenary its natural this one is a bit of a damp squid, the atmosphere last year was electric, having said that, it was my first visit to the island in 15 years for the TT havinbg lived there for quite a while, and i was shocked at the prices involved at being at the event. From entry to various parts of the course to the cost of just being there. Thia year due to unfortunate circumstances i have had to cancel last minute, but had the comfort i could listen live on the net. WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If this continues, the TT will be finished in 5-10 years because no one will be able to afford to go to it. I saw one advert online for accomodation priced at £90 per night for a two bedroom flat, over the fortnight thats over £1200 jesus id want a villa in spain for that price fully inclusive.
The TT has always been pricey so has going to the Isle of Man, thats why they have virtually no tourist industry now, and if this continues that wont have a TT to fall back on to suplement there income.
