Bank Holiday Monday 25th May on IOM
Monday morning, 25th May, lovely morning with a good walk along Ramsey's promenade in breaking sunshine and looking forward to a great day ahead.
After breakfast its time to fire the Mogs up and join the course at Parliament Square and up over the mountain.Today we are visiting the south of the Island.
Quiz question taken from the following information,
First stop is Murrays Motorcycles at Santon, south of Douglas.
Murrays Motorcycle Museum, Santon, Isle of Man. A sometimes overlooked hidden gem for tourists visiting the Isle of Man, (especially loved by those motorcyclists who know of it), is Murrays Motorcycle Museum! Located at Santon, the museum can be found on the left hand side of New Castletown Road, just before the famous “Fairy Bridge”. This is the road that runs south from Douglas towards the Island’s Ronaldsway airport.
The owners have a large area for parking all the Mogs up and are keen to talk about the bikes.
We then carry on South to Ronaldsway and The Manx Aviation and Military Museum. This museum is small but packed with interesting exhibits and the volunteers are so keen to talk to visitors.
Back into the trikes and carry on south to The Sound Visitor Centre and Cafe for the lunch stop,Stunning views over The Calf of Man.
About
At the Island's very southern tip is one of the most scenic places in the British Isles. Abundant with wildlife and natural wonders, this area is a hotspot for seals sunbathing on the rocky Kitterland, a small rocky islet. The area is also frequented by dolphins and basking sharks and the swirling tidal races are popular with adventurous kayakers.

Walkers will also appreciate the coastal footpaths which lead from the The Sound to Port Erin or Spanish Head, Cregneash and the Chasms in Port St Mary.

If you have enough time book a boat trip to or around the Calf of Man. As a Nature Reserve and Bird Observatory, the Calf, a 600 acre islet located on one of western Britain's major migration routes, is an ideal place for bird life, fauna and flora. Around 33 species of seabirds breed on the islet annualy, include Manx Shearwater, Kittiwake, Razorbill and Shag. Other species normally observed on the island include Peregrine, Hen Harrier and Chough.

Suitably refreshed we will continue to Port Erin where some may wish to visit the Steam railway, then on to Peel which is a popular spot for visitors. Lots to see here with a delightful seafront walk.
Heading North again we follow the coast and back into Ramsey and the hotel. Time to relax and have some refreshment.
Then onto dinner,
This evening is the only one we are not eating at the hotel. We have booked Vellikas Indian Restaurant in Ramsey exclusively for us. They serve Southern Indian Cuisine and are laying on a special Banquet evening for us and are even prepared to cater for Rog G's taste ! Partying late into the night.
There are several alternatives available for those who prefer.
