It’s been a long time coming, but I finally got to go to the legendary Isle of Man.
And yea, I get totally lost, but to be fair, it’s a great place to lose yourself 🙂
I head down towards Castletown, pay my respects at the Fairy Bridge and then swing around the SW coastline before rejoining the A3 (eventually) and head to Glen Helen, where I was staying at the Glen Helen Inn.
The island is like a mini Scotland and is very green and lush …. but you should go see for yourself 🙂
Again thanks for a great video. This year Me and my family, are on the IOM for Christmas and the New year, No bike, but may do some VLog here. Merry Christmas. Ride Safe matey
I lived there for 10 years, it’s good to see it from a newcomers perspective, pretty different to the general hype and what you see from TT vids isn’t it.
You can hire bikes on the Island…. 😉
Im in Canada, so that’s a far trip and to ship the bike over too…. but possible. 🙂
Do it … do it noooooow 😀
Damnn i always wanted to do this, you beat me to it
p.s. yes – it’s worth going off season as you pretty much have the island to yourself 🙂
Never a truer word spoken 😉
I’m self employed + my current contract is ending in Sept, but f*ck it … my bucket list is more important than work 😉
Great ride.
You forgot the BASTARD!
Im clearly a tight wad? hahaha I think added to the loss of earnings (im self employed) other costs of going etc its a big cost to travel not very far. Ferry aside, would you say its worth a trip in the off season as it were?
Seriously…? I thought that was cheap 🙂
oooh thats still painful for me, lol. I think given the buzz it gave you its worth it. I want to go but not that much hehehe.
I love that place, 4 times and I still don’t get bored 🙂
;)It was £120 return for the bike and me
raspberry … 😉
Good vlog, im not at all jealous!!How much was the ferry?
Jammy BASTARD!
Cheers BK.I think I mention the Moffat junction heading to Edinburgh in #3 😉
I’m thinking you need to come back up to the Scottish Borders for a blast (Gentle ride to enjoy the scenery) of course. I got a couple of videos of the 11th memorial Hizzy Run but got home and both no good for YouTube. But I will go there one day too. Thanks for the clear ride. As per usual, another brilliant video.
Good to ride with ya once again dude. Been a great day
Looking forward to the rest my friend :-)I got lost last year in Scotland between Tyndrum and the Kyle of Lochalsh, I have to say it was the best half day riding I have ever done.

Smartphone + headphones + Google Navigation app = nice man telling you where you need to go
Pretty damn good Wee Man. Yea, I shall be here…
Great Video matey, My wife came from the Isle of Man, about 8-9 years ago, and we go over there from time to time, to see her mum and dad, We are moving over there in the next two years, with the kids to live. Great place.
