Hi Oliver
That's a valid comment, but I'd like to point out that I was never a pure tester and really preferred road racing (even though I wasn't much good at it).
However, when it comes to organising TT's are much easier. Don't forget the original idea in England was to have a race that didn't look like a race. My thought was that first attempt at a TT there would be informal, although subsequently it might be possible for a group of English riders to set up a challenge with the local clubs.
Incidentally, it was suggested in the 1890's, when the police were being troublesome in England, that one possible answer would be to run events in France. Given the difficulties we face now (too much traffic, too much health and safety, clapped out roads) maybe it's time to reconsider this idea.
Here's another:
BTW these pics were taken in October, so it looks a bit different now. I took them thinking it was a potential time trial circuit - I've shelved that plan for the moment, but if people are interested I'd be happy to put it back into action.
