Thinking about going this year. I lived in Belfast and Coleraine a few years back its a top few days, highly recomended.

You have to go, or you'll miss out on one of biking's greatest days out !. I go every year and I'll be there again this year - we used to bike it over but found we could make it a day trip from Glasgow by flying to Belfast, hiring a car and driving up to Coleraine. Saves the hassle of ferries, accommodation, etc

The atmosphere around the circuit is great and it feels like the whole of N I has come to watch. Seeing race bikes at full pelt on public roads, and I mean full pelt (ie Rutter did 200 through the speed trap last year) is awesome.

You won't regret it !
