Isle of Man TT 2009

[bledubd]

Is there anyone who is going for the isle of man TT 2009? I would love to go but am not too sure as yet about my work schedule. And being a contractor am doubly not too sure. blame it all on the credit crunch.
Well at least the price of petrol has gone down.

by the way you need to book now for the event if you want accommodation and obviously the ferry crossing.

Pardon my ignorance but I didn't think just anybody could race around on the streets, just the qualified competitors. Have I got it wrong?

OK, I need to slightly hi-jack the thread. Can somebody please tell me the name of the song that starts at about the 1:05 mark of the video? The voice is hauntingly familiar but I just can't find the tune. HELP before my head explodes!
