Hi. New to ti's forum. I'm a 58 yo ex mechanic. My biggest love, after bikes is to be able to be a Marshall on the IOM. I haven't got the tackle to race so I do something to help the heroes. I've loved all motorsports since I was small, from 2cv, classic ,endurance etc. Thanks Andy

Welcome @Conundrum5865 to TFL. Enjoy. :thumbsup:
You wont be the first forum membe herer to be a marshall at the IoM.... @Andy is one who makes the journey annually (other than 'the Covid years') to Marshall at the event. He usually manages a couple of free days to spectate. He always has a camera handy as well so you will find plenty of IoM pics here he has taken

I usually do Quarry Bends and Signpost. Although this Manx I'd do Sulby Straight one night in practice week
