Racing fortnight reduced to nine days
The Chairman of the Manx Motorcycle Club says there's been 'mixed reviews' to this year's shorter Manx Grand Prix schedule.
The event gets underway with the first practice on Sunday, but the usual fortnight has been reduced to nine days.
They've lost two race days, something John McBride says 'upset' the 'traditionalists' - himself included:
Manxman won't return to service until end of September
Steam Packet says the situation is hugely disappointing
Steam Packet urged to be more 'transparent' over Manxman issues
Nature of work keeping boat in dry dock goes unexplained
Government needs to 'break the cycle' of child poverty on Island
Committee report accepted by Tynwald in court's final sitting
Proportion on waiting lists likely higher than England
Manx Care aiming for 95% of patients to be seen within a year
