Sorry, TT is a priority for me as well - pity there's not a longer time gap between them

 

[kickstart]

I'm over Thursday till Sunday, on bike though, I have a mate who lives on the circuit in Portrush just before Metropole.

Well should be off to TT Wednesday ready for practice Monday night. All dependant if sidecar drivers hand has recovered from a farm accident. Off tomorrow to get some chassis mods done. So all being well be flat out down bray hill next Monday.
If we are not racing I'll be off to France for a couple of weeks.

 

[Yorick]

Anyone got an idea of the race timetable?

Even the official website fails to give any times

 

[Stewart]

Are you asking about the NW200? I am here and I have no idea! I know when the roads are closed and that's it. It is Ireland though, so I guess it is to be expected. I have parked 200 yards from Metropole corner and as everybody says, the Irish people are brilliant.Boy, can they drink!

Can anyone tell me if the official campsite parking at the pits/finish line is hard standing or grass, thanks

 

[Winger]

Unsure, but last year we parked up here, 2 minutes walk to the promenade and 5 min walk to York Corner. Newly installed meters were charging £6 for 24 hours. Very well positioned

 

[Winger]

Tried to upload photo but said file was too large. Anyway it’s on Convention Avenue beside the fire station in Portstewart.
I hope to be back this year and include it in a 2 week holiday
