Hi,

Has anyone been to the event before and just looking at early bird tickets for the sat & sun for the event £44 including gondola trips etc. Is it worth the visit and expense?

We go most years, would really recommend it, fantastic atmosphere! There re loads of B&B's or hotels in the area or camp sites. Basically the choice is yours!

Would recommend it to anybody, great weekend!

Almost went last year- decided to go up to Golspie and ride my bike instead, then visited the Fort on the way home and had a wee shot myself Might actually make it to the race next year.

Hell yeah it;s worth it! Get the Gondola up and then walk the circuit back down taking snaps of the riders over different parts of the circuit. Try to plan on being back for the final 20 riders, get the best remaining spot and join in the tidal wave of cheering as Steve Peat comes down to finish the race with Pole Position. POLE POSITION!

We camped in my bus.
