Wow, that looks pretty good !
It's bloody expensive, but on the up side, situated in Nobles Park it's not far from the action.
Mad sunday is not what it used to be IMHO. The whole day used to be a feast of motorcycle shanannigans, but in more recent years it has sadly been diluted to conform with health and safety concerns. The Mountain section of the TT course from Ramsey to Douglas, (about 8 miles or so), used to be made "one way" for the day, which meant the world and his mother were up there trying to be the new John Mac. However, as keeping the tourists travelling in one direction reduced accidents, the authorities adopted the "one way over the mountain" for the entire TT fortnight. So in a kind of a way, every day is now Mad Sunday" !
Douglas prom also used to be a special area for stunt monkeys to showcase their talents, and there were wheelies, burnouts, stoppies and just about everything else imaginable going on involving motorcycles, with riders in all states of dress and undress, and this all took place with a heavy, but tolerant police presence, which created an absolutely carnival atmosphere, and a special evening to end Mad Sunday. But this has all been stopped long since, and sadly Mad Sunday is now relatively sensible sunday.
However, TT fortnight is the most fantastic festival for fans of bike sport, and every biker needs to experience it at least once !
