If you asked 100 people what they know about the Isle of Man I’m sure you’d get in no particular order:- Manx Cats, the funny flag that looks a bit “German” and the TT races.  Even with the best will in the world we couldn’t manage to come up with more than half a dozen facts between the cat and the flag in total so when it came to making something fun to learn a bit more about the Isle of Man we settled on the TT races.  Welcome to our great big quiz about road racing on the Isle of Man.

The Isle of Man TT is just as much a part of Manx life as cats with no tales, the Laxey Wheel and Kippers! For 2 weeks in May/June every year the Isle of Man comes to a stand still whilst over 37 miles of public road are closed each day and the bravest competitors in world motorsport dodge houses, poles and other roadside obstacles at speeds over 200 MPH. The greatest motorbike races on Earth, the greatest Motorsport event full stop. Whether you are a motorbike fan or not a trip to the TT is a must do on anybody’s bucket list who enjoys speed, you really will not believe your eyes and no amount of video footage will EVER compare with the true sense of speed of being on the hedge with bikes skimming past your nose.

Updated For TT 2022/23 – There’s Been Some Big Changes!

For many of us watching the TT meant sitting in a hedge somewhere with a beer in one hand and a radio in the other, this is how it was for many many years. The radio commentary was how we discovered who was where in the race. Then as technology evolved we progressed to being able to see live timings for ourselves. So joining us in the hedge would be a mobile phone with access to the live timings website/app. Things progressed further, social media meant unofficial TT streams popping up here and there as fans shared their live experience, combined with static IOM webcams and it gave some sense of what else was happening around the course from where you were watching. If you wanted to watch the TT live then this is how it was done, right up to 2019 when the world stopped for Covid. That was your option, turn up on the Isle of Man and watch. Well in for the 2022 races and beyond that has all changed, how you watch the TT live has evolved!
