Was on my bucket list since started riding back in 1970. Finally made it in 2024. It was everything I thought it would be. Took a bus tour of the course that was narrated by an 11 time TT champion. Gives you an entirely different perspective of just how challenging the course is. Spent an afternoon at a bar up by Sulby where the speed trap is. Fastest speed I saw was 203. And you can just about reach out and touch the riders. The whole experience was awesome. Highly recommend it for any motorcycle rider.

I’ve watched at the Sulby straight, but I prefer the Creg—you can get a great view of the riders bombing down the hill from Kate’s Cottage and then slowing to make the turn...
