Manx GP Day 2 30 Aug 10

What a start to the day ! At first light,0600, its up and away for a lap of the mountain course. Where to start. It is the sort of route you would treat with extreme care if you were just out for a ride. Having watched so many video clips I was unprepared for just how bumpy and up and down it goes in all areas. So much of it is blind plus a really nasty early section, Glen Vine I think, has all the horrors and more all in one place. Also I had not realised how beautiful the island is. The view from Windy Corner out over the bay is brilliant.
Now its back to Union Mills for a clean up then to walk the old railway line back to Braddan Bridge to watch the races.
