Rushen mines is where I learnt to ride a motorbike.

Dry and sunny TT week - fantstic.
Last I was there (1995 or 97) it rained 13 days out of 14.

I'm surprised that you can still drive on the old mines.

In the five years I lived there it was the only thing that really peed me off (apart from the stupid ferry prices) the bloody weather... 1 super hot TT and 1 ok and 3 cold and wet........ very wet.......

As we reckon we will go next year its gonna be a wet cold one.....
