ellanvannin2010 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 And the farmer has picked today to cut his grass and move it between Whitebridge and Baldromma, you would think the police would have advised him not to do it these two weeks as most traffic seems to have to come this way to and from Ramsey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donald Trumps Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 (edited) You pay for access and you pay if they have to close it/recover vehicle/fix anything. Surprised Minster Skelly hasn't leapt on that idea to help claw back some of the £5m he has to find The TT itself would be still be free to watch but if you have to play silly buggers & tie up the emergency services all day you should pay Edited May 30, 2014 by Donald Trumps 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the grass is ready it's ready, not before, not afterwards. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trailer I followed did not appear to have a registration plate on it so have no idea, I actually agree that normal life should go on but since the mountain is one way and seems to be closed more than open it funnels a heck of a lot more traffic onto the Ramsey coast road which imo has much more potential for accidents than the mountain.

Farm tractors don't require road tax to be driven on the road so long as the use is solely for agricultural purposes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piebaps Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 You pay for access and you pay if they have to close it/recover vehicle/fix anything. Most insurance companies won't cover Nurburgring. You need additional cover. Keeping the mountain an open public road neatly sidesteps this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
