From now on called the M3W Grand Prix Week on the Isle of Man 2020
Expressions of interest means we crack on with this do which looks like it will be another good un. We shall stay in Liverpool the night before the ferry and for those living some way on the way back too. This is because of Ferry times, currently IOM Ferries have indicated we travel as motorcycle/sidecar ( tbc)
The hotel I have pinpointed as ideal needs to be booked well in advance due to its popularity with car clubs, so shortly I am going to run some dates across those of you interested.
Of course I will avoid our other regular events.
We plan to GoPro the TT laps and frivolities for us all to look back on.
Below are those already interested, please add your names asap as once I book the hotel it will be a closed event.

Don't worry last time we went over we used an underground secured CCTV car park next to the hotel we will pre book it again this time. For those interested we can visit some places of interest in the evening, ( I was brought up in Birkenhead)This place is also handy should anyone wish to trailer their Mog to Liverpool, they allow trailers/towing vehicles long term at a good rate. All you have to do then is drive on to the ferry and off the other end. Of course I have no idea who may want to do that ! Maybe some oldies ? Mogs not owners.

Sounds interesting... are you deciding the dates in 2020 later or is that discussed in some other thread?

Looking like the week before the TT or the week after.
TT 2020 is 30th May to 12th June. Please don't take that as defo yet till I have idea of numbers. Everything will now be posted on this same thread, Ian

Hi PaulV,
Great you are in and good your missus is coming too.
UPDATE
During Monday I got most things firmed up. a great modern hotel is holding some double/twin or single rooms, ( at a great price)
IOM ferry will give us a deal too as a group booking.
I really like the look of it all and think you will too.
Am having a chat with Red Leader tonight ( always good to get his opinion) then we need to move quickly to ensure we get the hotel confirmed.
Already they are over half full for many dates in 2020. The IOM is always popular as is confirmed by the interest we have.

I will have the exact dates and hotel details on here for you this week with the full plan of the meeting so you can decide if it is for you. I will want a small deposit ( the hotel want 10% to reserve the rooms) once you have paid me that you are in. There is unlikely to be any more rooms available after this is done. So if you are on the fence, why not jump off and join us ?
Ian

Hi Ian
Please can you include Nigel and June to the list for the IOM 2020 week.

Might have been better to ask who ISN'T coming on your trip!

Looks like it's a full squadron scramble!

Are the mystery couple Chrisardo following the wedding?! 💎🎊🍾

I’m afraid you’re gonna have to check out the gossip columns in Hello magazine 🤫🤭

Hi merry men, have to tell you I have e-mails here from three more couples who want to come.
Will take a couple of stiff drinks tonight before posting up.
No doubt at all we will split into groups like G&G with a leader in each. I had an idea we might get up to 10 Mogs, never this amount, but we can cope I think with up to 30 max !
The good thing, it has really strengthened my hand in dealing with the hotel/ IOM ferry re rates we pay. Think of the awesome sight of us all getting on the Seacat at Liverpool and travelling in convoy to Ramsey after disembarking

M3W Grand Prix Week on the Isle of Man 2020.
UPDATE. Fri 22nd May to Fri 29th May 2020
I am pleased to have now formalised our plans and have a good idea of prices. The negotiation has been long but well worth it.
The Hotel we have picked is The Ramsey Park Hotel, Ramsey.( Google it) Super modern hotel in a stunning beachfront location. Currently undergoing a massive extension of rooms and function suites
( finished this May)
A large private car park and a ten minute walk along the promenade into Ramsey. It will be an oasis to relax in after a day of Mog driving. In the last couple of years the Porsche, TVR and MG Clubs have all rated the hotel and food as excellent. Its location is excellent for our base and will suit those who enjoy walking or romantic strolls along the promenade.
The details are too long to print here so I am preparing a Word Doc with all you need to know, prices, ferries, what's on etc. then it is decision time.
Most of you are well known to me or are MTWC members so I have your e-mail address. The following names I do not believe I know so I need you to e-mail me your contact details ASAP so I can send you the document. This will be going out Tuesday 26th Feb to you.
SolMorgan
Paul V

If I do not hear back I shall assume you are no longer interested.

You should have all received a Word Doc to your personal e-mail address. It gives you all the information you should need. Dates, timings and package prices.
I think it is a really good deal for our group.
Ian

I have been enviously watching this thread, but assumed that the dates wouldn’t work for Julia and myself ☹️
But Hey, surpise surprise, it’s turned out to be the perfect week and we’ve ducked in under the barrier to claim a spot 😀🇮🇲😀

Thanks,

12 months and we’re on our way!!!!

My God how time flies ! Only twelve months to go.
A lot of the planning is in hand and I am currently working on a really exciting development which will, if it comes off cap everything else. I chose this particular week cause it is pre TT practice week so the Island is already geared up for ???

As you all by now know for logistical reasons the main group will now sail from Liverpool on Friday 22nd May 2020 ( one day earlier than planned) a small number will still sail out on Saturday. All will sail back on Thurs 28th into Liverpool. It is planned to stay in Liverpool on Thurs 21st and for those having a long journey home on Thurs 28th also ( due to late ferry sailing) This change has created two spaces if anyone is interested.

Further news to follow regarding special meal evenings and special visits.
Ian

Thanks for the update Ian.
Only taken 12 months but I think I've sorted my log-in.

Allan & Helen

When you get that many M3W's together at one time what is it called?

A flock?

A herd?

A Gaggle?

Maybe just "stunning"?

A Squadron

I see there at least a couple of musicians in the party 🎸 🎷

If they have room to bring their instruments we’ll enjoy some fantastic evenings of entertainment 🎵 🎶 🎵

A Swarm ?

A Storm ?

Flying circus?
Scourge?

A Breakdown?

A Rumbling, surely!

S&S In Concert? 🎫🍻🥂🍾🍻🚢🤩

A decision

+1 for A Breakdown Waiting To Happen

(but what a collection of experts to have on hand if something does go wrong).

Looking forward to the 2022 version of this event!

Hi Paul,
Yes it looks like this much awaited trip will finally happen, on ly a few weeks to go !
With probably the biggest turn out of Morgan Three-Wheelers to a recent social meet there is going to be a packed week of driving/socialising.
With entrants arriving en masse on the Island, mostly on the same ferry crossing it will be a sight to behold as they convoy along Douglas seafront.
With plenty of time to settle into our hotel and meet and make new friends, we have enthusiasts from all over UK, EU, Australia and USA.
The action starts firmly on the Saturday morning with a mass drive out to the TT Grandstand. We have secured permission to open up the starting grid line for a mass photo shoot.
The grid will be headed up by the ex Tom Rhodes Racing Morgan, owned for over 60 years by Bill Wallbank who sadly is no longer with us. The Morgan is now used by his family and Simon will be the driver. He will be flanked by other similar era Morgans with almost 50 of the modern five speeders behind.
This promises to be a photo shoot to remember and we expect to have some super drone footage too.
There are planned activities each day and lots of spare time to enjoy this fantastic Island as you wish.
See everything from the ex Rhodes Morgan YY49 to one of the last P101,s in action during this week on the IOM.

Looks to be a grand event, reading of it brings back memories of time spent on the island during the TT and MGP over the years. I for one will be very much looking forward to seeing pics and reading whatever reports might be written...I will keep my fingers crossed for wonderful weather for you all to ENJOY...

Looking forward to the photos Ian

Morning all - we are North Yorkshire based and currently planning to make our way to Liverpool to catch the ferry early Friday morning, 17th June. Any others from Yorkshire / Lincolnshire planning on doing the same and wanting to meet up en-route ??.

Cheers

Keith

The Lincolnshire contingent M3W's, both of them, are staying overnight in Liverpool. A leisurely breakfast and then departure at 1115 for the IoM, that is the plan at least. See you at the ferry 👍.

Thanks Ian - we may yet stay over in Liverpool as opposed to trek across the M62 during rush hour. See you soon.

Its worth considering that if you miss the ferry on Friday morning you'll really struggle to get another booking for a few days.

In the event of a game-over breakdown in IOM, is anyone relying on the AA for recovery? We are trying to ascertain whether our membership would cover us and the policy wording is somewhat ambiguous. A nice man at the AA call centre thought that we would be covered but wouldn't put it in writing! Does anyone have any experience of this?

Thanks Chris - I have had a change of plan and now booked into a hotel in Liverpool. See you soon.

Bunny, I’ve added AA European cover to my AA breakdown/relay cover. It covers their zone1 which also explicitly says it covers the IoM. This suggests to me that the standard cover does not include the IoM. I thought it best to be sure beforehand 😎

Thanks Ricardo, your advice backs up the opinion of Mrs Bunny so I now have to put up with the 'I told you so's' etc!

In the end I have added European breakdown and Recovery to my Headley insurance policy. Cost £35 which I thought was quite reasonable.
