And so it begins

                     Refuelling 


The sun is out, the blue skies are back, the tourists have arrived. The Isle of Man TT Grandstand  ready for action. Pit stop for the tourists to grab a beer and a bite to eat. Let's hope the good weather lasts until the races begin. Probably not, but so if you are going pack an umbrella and sun cream. You'll need both.

Two pints of Okells and packet of crisps please

                              Beer O'clock


Riders day off and head over to the TT Grandstand. Every other day is race day, over the 2 weeks of the TT Races, and days off are a great for photo opportunities around the paddock and pits. You can find mechanics tinkering, riders book signing, locals and tourists grabbing a pint of the local stuff and a bite to eat. I'd like to say blue skies are always an Isle of Man staple, but we all know that's not the case. The beer though, never stops flowing at the Okells beer tent.


Fancy a pint, buy some TT merchandise, spot a rider eating a burger. TT Grandstand, is the place to be. Free entry on non race days. Family friendly atmosphere. Blue skies not guaranteed. Well you can't have everything.
