Classic TT
It was nice to see you all again up at Jurby, next year we will need to make it a longer catch up. I say the ferry crossings on Friday and Saturday were horrendous and bikes were like skittles all over the deck, I say a picture of a nice red kettle on its side unfortunately. I also believe but not 100% sure steam packet do not accept liability in rough seas for damage. I do hope that is not the case.

Re: Classic TT
I was on the Saturday morning crossing on the Ben to Heysham. It's the roughest crossing for donkeys years. Saw the fallen bikes as I was getting off. Also saw what looked like a Steam Packet employee looking over the mess. My 2 ton Land Rover had moved sideways on the top deck. Felt sorry for the bike owners coming down the stairs to see that.

Re: Classic TT
Does that kettle belong to anyone on here ? I was over there last week and saw a fair few kettles and knew who most of them belonged to but don't remember seeing that particular one .

Re: Classic TT
So much for the poxy bit of rope they use to strap them down. I would think that makes it 'their fault'.
Proof that four strokes are over complicated

Re: Classic TT
Its absolutely ridiculous they have proper wheel cradles for bikes but I have never seen them used, steam packet has issued a statement saying a "few" bikes were damaged and they are dealing directly with the owners. I have just heard there are four owners saying on Facebook that nobody has contacted them. I am not the slightest bit suprised the company is a total sham.
