great weather! and very good photos. i particularly like the 1st and last

Some excellent pics. Love no3 as it shows another angle on the whole proceedings.

Number 4# really does it for me mate , clarity and all the rest is spot on with all of them!

care to share what lens you were using , im interested........?

I agree with the above, fantastic shots. Some great panning!

yeah!

today i was thinking about going to a trip to Isle of Man to see some action, like i knew it was this time of the year when the race is held, lol

great photos, thanx for sharing!

cheers

Great shots! Hard to choose the best, but probably 1,4 and 8. Great colour

Some nice shots there. The patriot in me chose the Keith Amor shots, but the rest are still very good.

I agree, with the increased restrictions the available spots get more crowded. I found going to Keppel Gate this year was a success (okay needed to get there by 9:30 and didn't get out till 17:00) it wasn't too crowded and you get to see a fair amount of racing).

2nd and 5th for me

all great shots though

5th one for me. The 2nd is spoilt by the no entry sign

Sweet shots!!!!!!!

I go to MOTO GP and the AMA races here in California every time they come here. I need to make a trip out one of these days to Isle Of Man TT. How can you beat driving like a mad man on the streets instead of on a track. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and work in San Francisco. I commute 60 miles a day on my 06' Suzuki GSX-R 1000. Every time I get on my bike around here, I feel like I'm riding in the Isle Of Man TT. A little country side and city riding all in one day.

Wow nice shots a really mix bag here hard to pick a fav shot all nice

Thanks for all the comments

Was using a 70-200 F4 L and a 40D

I found the bungalow to be quite a good spot if your willing to do a bit of walking, i dont really like to be stuck in the one spot so explored some of the back roads on the inside of the track. I thought altogether it was quite a bit quieter than last year, definitely not the same number of bikes about.

Superb shots!

Great shots of the crazyiest race on the planet !
