Friends of TTRA
Welcome to the T.T.R.A. website.
The T.T. Riders Association (TTRA) website offers information and articles on the Isle of Man Tourist trophy riders association. The Friends of the TTRA is a great way to help support the TTRA for those who enjoy the TT, but have never ridden in a race.
The T.T. Riders Association is the only Isle of Man registered
charity in motorcycle racing for motorcycle racers. If you start
a T.T. race you can join for £35 - for life subscription
(resignation not allowed!)

If you are new to the TTRA or have never heard of us, this is the
place to start.

We've recently heard from Dermot in Canada who writes:
"I have long been interested in Vintage motorcycle Racing....especially the early Isle of Man TT.
I recently put together a short story to honor Stanley Woods' efforts in 1922 / you can see it here : http://zoomfrog.blogspot.com/
It's the least I could manage......although I wish I had the time to do it more justice.....a longer format / I did it on spec but a graphic novel publisher has promised to buy it and feature it in an upcoming issue........so the youth of today will continue to learn from his example! I hope some of Stanleys friends like Joe Wood and Dave Crawford have a chance to see it
Thanks ! Dermot ( in Canada )"
