The RedRenna IOMTT Spectator Guide and Tour of the Course!

Welcome to the RedRenna Isle of Man spectator guide! I will show you all of the spots I have watched at, whilst taking you on a whirlwind tour of the track. I will also be giving you guys some useful (and not so useful) tips along the way. This video is aimed at people who have never been to the TT before, and want to get ideas about which spots are good (or not so good) for watch the races. This was filmed during TT 2016, please note that spectator points sometimes change to "off limits" at the discretion of the marshals on the day.

Great video, I'm off to watch the 2018 TT and being the first time I've been, your video has given a lot of useful info on where to watch the racing. Thanks.

[@ChristopherC207]

Definitely using this video to help plan my IoMTT visit. Thanks so much, Red!

[@RedRenna]

You're welcome!! :D This is what I made this for, so I am so glad you have commented!

Regarding Guthries. Watched from there in 16 - walked up there from the Gooseneck - that walk is not recommended. However i learned that you can actually park on the right hand side in a small parking space around where the Marshalls stand. You can then cross under the road via a creek - fantastic spot for spectating. Also worth trying is the top AND bottom of Barregarrow. Space is limited at the bottom so come early - however you get the most insane look at commitment as the riders tackle the bottom af Barregarrow. There is a small footpath connecting these two spots, and at the top there is food and a toilet. Keppel gate is really worth the walk up from Creg Ny Bae. Also try stopping half way between Kates cottage and the Creg where there is a crest in the road. For an impression of speed on a traning day try Crosby crossroads where the B35 and A23 meets the course - nice jumps there. At the end of Cronk-Y-Voddy at the 11 mile marker (Molyneux's) is my favourite spot.

Excellent information video for all those who intend to visit IOM. I love your voice, it reminds me very much of the English pronunciation of Guy Martin. Thank you, young lady in action on a motorcycle!

[@RedRenna]

+flokser021 I love the iom, I want to go baaaaaack

[@raymccabe8102]

Bloody fantastic ! Love seeing all those places that you don't see on TT TV footage. Very informative.

[@Suchesearl]

Best IOMTT VLOG ive seen. I went in 2014 .Need to get back!

[@RedRenna]

+Terry Billings me too!

[@GeorgiaGrowGuy]

Renna your awesome, thanks for taking the time to do the video. Visiting the TT is near the top of my bucket list and your videos are part of the reason.

[@RedRenna]

Thank you :) definitely make the effort to go, it is so worth it!

[@SeanLXIV]

Good video, and some useful tips. You can get to Guthries on an off road bike, there's a forest track which comes out where the marshals park just after Guthries and before the 27th. You can also ride up and park there before roads close (leave plenty of space for the marshals as they come up in convoy after roads close), but you are stuck there until roads open so not good if the weather turns

[@macumuzahn]

Hi, at 12:23 you ask about the big dome building, that is a salt and grit barn for the gritters when it is icy on the roads...I know because I put all the floodlights in it . Hope you enjoyed your visits to the island. Regards Mark.

[@davidcarr4991]

Excellent vid! Really enjoyed your personal perspective. And yes, there are some really nice, and very expensive, houses!

[@Very-OldFart]

Without doupt the best video you have done Miss R

[@Jacko.Wirral]

Cracking video, signpost corner. You can sit on the bank on the left all they way down. Some great photos to be had.

[@r1mac681]

Mint video, great footage just booked my ferry for 2020 yeeehaaa just an ace island even when there's no racing on, thank you, ride safe😊👍👍🏁

[@scottdeney5970]

Thanks for the tour.... I'm in the US so all I get is TV and Vids of the TT... Your lucky !!

[@MegaPinklady84]

Great vid Renna.. We are already on countdown this year and are luckily enough To to be staying @ Ballagaarey.. The bails you were referring to are filled with rectocell Foam if memory serves me correctly

[@steves6547]

And the answer to the question you have all been waiting for. ....... what's in that dome............... its exiting. ............. truly mystical. .......... its...... grit for the roads in winter.

[@RedRenna]

+Steve S haha magical grit?

[@Peakwanderer]

Thank you Renna, I really really appreciate the effort you have put into this video, and all your other videos of course :)

[@RedRenna]

+Peakwanderer thank you, this took a while to make but was worth it!

[@klouism1]

Excellent video. Lots of great stuff to see. You are awesome!

[@martybartfast]

Nice vid, RR. I watched Joey Dunlop from Union Mills in 1996 - I would love to go back! :-)

[@SKBKER]

Can you imagine doing the TT anywhere in the UK - The rider would fly off on the first pothole .

[@DeathsStalkerRVT]

Great as usual.

[@easternmenace]

Love these videos

[@wullie9185]

very informative vblog red having watched and marshalled in most places on the circuit in the last 20 years. shame health and safety got involved and ruined alot of the good spectators spots🖒🖒🖒🖒

[@SportcockActionshit]

really good vid,thankyou

[@johnspencer8038]

Red, It's Thanksgiving Eve, in the U.S. I'm watching your videos on KZbin. Also, I've been texting Lady M/Cists from all over the place. I get into contact with them, from "Facebook." I always say, "be sure to check out Captain Rambunctious, & let Red Renna take you to the IOMTT." I've been talking to a French Lady, named Sandrine Stepe. Sandrine is in her 40s. Enjoy Motherhood.

[@RedRenna]

+John Spencer thank you John, I enjoy reading your comments :)

[@leetakeuchi6588]

Howdy neighbor. I'm in LA. Ever make it out to the TT?

[@oklahomahank2378]

I was about to comment that there were no sausages, and there they were! You should include a bit on where the best sausages are.

[@lakegeneva4851]

Thank you! Excellent.

[@palmertrees]

little bit miffed you forgot the GOAT. Hailwood rise. :)

[@candlebougie]

Ballacrye is a proper corner at race speed + there's the biggest/fastest jump on the Mountain Course.

[@ericfoster6555]

Very good commentary and useful to plan my first (short trip) Im flying in just for a day would you recommend Braddon Bridge?

[@RedRenna]

+Eric Foster if you are just going for one day then I would personally go to bungalow 👍 you can get the tram up to there from Douglas too

[@ericfoster6555]

@@RedRenna thanks Ill check it out

[@GwresYnKernow]

I think the thing with the bridge is if you dropped stuff (your phone, drink, food, crisp packet, etc) it'd fall onto the track, which is obviously bad.

[@chriselliott3995]

Hi Red!! So we're camping at Quarter Bridge and want to watch from Rhen Cullen, what time would you truly recommend setting off in the morning on motor bike to avoid all the horrible bike traffic. I went in 1990 and I don't remember it been as busy as it looks in your vlogs. I'm taking my son(21) for the first time. Thanks.. X

[@RedRenna]

+Chris Elliott it is super busy yes, I always tried to get to my spot two hours before the roads close, to make sure I can get a good view, and the roads are less crazy. Take plenty of water, sun protection, a radio, and lots of food!!!

[@johnspencer8038]

Red, You haven't heard from me in a LONG time. I thought I had lost you. All of a sudden, there you were. You even had your little girl with you. You probably won't see my comments. John Spencer Long Beach, Ca.

[@laroasty]

hi. sorry to bother you. just wanna say how useful I have found your blogs on the isle of man tt. I am heading there this year for the first time and cant wait. I was just wondering if you would be able to tell me what video editing software you use, especially where you manage to get what you are viewing in front, and a camera viewing you in the same scene too? at the mo I only have gopro studio which is rather limited. any info would be great. many thanks for reading and keep up the good work 👍

[@RedRenna]

+Matt Roach thank you for your nice comment :) you are so lucky to be going to the Isle of Man!! I use final cut pro 10 editing software on my mac. It doesn't come cheap but it is great to work with and I really enjoy editing on it. Makes putting the small me in the corner super easy peasy

[@laroasty]

@@RedRenna awesome thank you for the info, I will look into it! Hope you make more vlogs like these soon. Thanks again!

[@el8356]

👍

[@palmertrees]

railway's rubbish need to go to Crosby pub, great place

[@leetakeuchi6588]

So buying tickets is not necessary I take it.. ? How do you get around the island each day to those spots? Ride?

[@RedRenna]

+Lee Takeuchi the only tickets necessary are the ferry tickets! And yes riding to the spectator spots is the best way to get around. And lots of spots have bike parking areas in fields nearby.

[@leetakeuchi6588]

@@RedRenna thank you very much. This looks to be the top reason for me to travel to Europe.

[@OnlyJoeKingOG]

Do you HAVE to buy tickets for the TT to enter? Or can you literally just buy the ferry tickets and camp out somewhere to watch the races?

[@RedRenna]

You have to buy ferry tickets (one year in advance as they sell out) and it is a very good idea to find accommodation or book a camping spot before you go :) there are usually only very small charges at a few of the more popular and smaller spectator spots, usually under £5 for a whole day, and this goes towards a charity on the island, or the local church roof fund or whatever.

[@leetakeuchi6588]

@@RedRenna are there private charters out to the isle?

[@coolmancol]

whats the name of the road you said about near ginger hall? not sure i've been down there?

[@RedRenna]

+Bungle Bear not sure of the name, but it joins the road that goes across the island, from sulby crossroads to bungalow :)

[@coolmancol]

Oh yer, i know that road, it has the really tight hairpin turns on it, i love that road!

[@chriscooper6966]

Hi...its called Tholt-e-Will ....beautiful area of the island. Takes you up to The Bungalow from Sulby Glen
