At least you went to the TT Saffy well done you.
Good for you. Brave girl doing it on your own.x
😁😁😁😁
I agree, she’s a great example.
I love your humour and personality. Great video.
Thanks so much!
I am so happy that the UA-cam algorithm Goddesses pointed me to you. I love your attitude and I swear if we were to travel together we’d be laughing 24/7 cause I do this same shit on the regular. ALL OF IT!! The key, the light bulb.😂💀🤣🤪 Glad I found you.
I am a mess 😂
@@SaffySprocketSame here, Saffy.🤣😂
This year's weather didn't play ball and much disruption ensued. It's best to try and get a week's stay so that you stand the best chance of seeing some racing. With time to spare there's loads to see and do, as well as soaking up the atmosphere. Glad you made the trip, though.
Absolutely it's very hit and miss isn't it
Every time I watch one of your vids there is a point in the video where I can’t help but think you could do with a hug from someone
Happy travels and sending hugs 😊
Sprocket chops, you’re a nutter. Good on you 😊
Was going to say the exact same thing. 🤣🤣
I stayed at the same place for the practice week this year, lovely spot. I hope you got to see some of the racing on Saturday at least!
Yes! I was very lucky!
Your giggle, young lady, is as contagious as can be. It seems to define your outlook on life. You're really lovely. Take care and travel safely.
We have three spares keys....but older bikes/cars. But...well done girl.
😅 lesson learnt
Ok, I am truly good and honestly jealous. That is on my bucket list.
Looking forward to your upcoming episodes covering this event! Must be something to see those riders live flying by!! Great video
The weather is always unpredictable at IOM i went working trackside capacity for 5 years running . What no one has said is the whole island is beautiful. Lots of lovely roads friendly people just hate the ferry !
😍😍😍 The TT and Saffy Sprocket all in one video?! Thank you God! 😜
Our giggling Safft “lost my key again” Sprocket on another video? Off course we gonna watch it, lezzzz goooo! 😁👍
Oh god, it was so embarassing!
Enjoy you will love it it's amazing
Well done Saffy, Manx gp is more laid back. I prefer it. 🏍️🙂
Everyone keeps saying it's really good and the 4 miler race
@@SaffySprocket ja it is a must do. Better atmosphere, classic bikes, jurby, the paddock....... All good.
Hi Sa Nice tour video in Ireland.Enjoyed a lot.I think you enjoying Nice Cold ❄️🥶 climate at there😊
Thanks Saffy, you always make me smile. "I've got a light this time.. oww they hurt" LMAO. You are making me look so bad with your brilliant adventures, have a great time and please keep posting. :>)
Looking fantastic Saffy.
🥰
Saffy love ur humor your awesome see you do it the saffy way . Good luck !!!!
Hope you enjoyed your tt experience safe travels 👍
Your planning and sense of direction are becoming legendary. You really need that good luck charm my wife has made for you ❤👍🏻👍🏻
Hope you had lovely time at the time at the TT and you got a brilliant spot there just before ballascarey 😁
I did!
Hey there first time???? Hope u where blown away, couse i never forget my first pass of the racers.
This girl is crazy, in a good way
You done well to get last min ferry hope you enjoyed it Lovely place good even when racing is not on
So fun! I appreciate your attitude through it all. I strive to share that ability! I initially was going to make some "Whisker Biscuit" jokes about your un-trimmed zip-ties, but hey... Born in the 70's people shall not throw stones in a glass house.
Absolutely brilliant there been to TT myself it its amazing max respect to go alone enjoy but there is a lot of time waiting for qualifications or racing buts its a lovely island to have a mooch round i watched it up at the crag na ba pub brilliant and the night life in Douglas is brilliant
Hi Saffy!!! Ur laugh is so cute. 😍🥰
🥰🥰🥰🥰
I live on island. Managed to do a lap on the first Saturday - before the mountain was continuously closed! Glad you could come over - are you planning another visit next year? 👍😀
Nice to see you and Rocket back together again 😊
It was nice to meet this crazy lady at the TT.. (I’m the old guy you were chatting with at the campsite)🤪
Great to meet you too!
You've got to love those bits of string they tie the bikes up with. Every time I go down to get the bike I expect bikes all over the place.
Forgot about the shit string🏍️💨💨🙀
Safety first 😂
500 bikers and only 1 lost their keys, It had to miss saffy sprocket, not the first time you have lost your keys and debatable if the last 😂, I've never been to the TT keep saying I must, I'm sure you had a great time. Best wishes Roy.
I'm a hot mess 😭😂
Anyone else notice the ufo at 1.30??😮
No
There definitely was something there...
That was me sorry 👾
0:23 nice one saffron lass ,sleepings good if your tired 👋🤠👍oh my knicknames COWBOY,take care .
Sometimes you gotta sleep
@@SaffySprocket yep agreed ,
The Mannanan, or when the crossings are really rough, "The Vomit Comet"
Just got back from race week. Weather made a pigs ear of the racing but we did a lot of riding on the island which brings me such joy 🤩 ps put your spare keys in a pocket on your panniers.
I see a pattern here. Every time Saffy uses a ferry she loses her keys. 😀 You would think that by now...
Its the ferries fault 😅
I was on that campsite and think left the day u arrived that’s a shame and I stood And watched from the same location one day
Ahhh the keys!! 😂...i can absolutely guarantee without any shadow of doubt, if i was on that ship.......you wouldnt be the only one looking for your keys 😅😅
Left mine at a seafood kiosk and spent a whole day...well into the evening re tracing my steps last time...
It wasnt my first time and certainly wont be my last! 😅
I watched your video about the youtube meet too. I can level with you on the imposter syndrome. I did a meet and greet at a show a few years ago. Dont get me wrong, I really enjoyed meeting people who watched my videos but i couldnt shake the feeling that i shouldnt really be there.
Anyway...you've got a great channel!
Your personality and laugh is infectious!
Best of luck and continued success for the future! 😁😁
I went last year with my brothers, froze my arse off in a "glamping" tent. Really good experience and seriously impressed with the speeds they get up to. Your a brave girl doing it all on your own Saffy.
If it doesn't have 4 solid walls you need a hot water bottle 😂
Damm you've had a good spring/summer so far! Am hoping weather improves, in two minds whether to camp in Wales.
Guess weather never gonna be perfect.
P.s oh I have the same lights as you do! Might take a few to abr.
Fingers crossed it gets nicer soon
@@SaffySprocket Am in 2 minds. Guess could use it as excuse to goto a campsite in West Wales in July also😂 (by then will be 25c and a nice breeze, no rain😉).
If there was one person to lose their key on the ferry, it would be you 😂 I hope you had a great time, it's always a bit mental out there.
Cool.
O Saffy, i feel for ya.
Lost bike keys. Been there done that.
But I learned.
I have a special pocket in my jacket, that’s only for keys.
Put the keys in the special pocket.
Have i put the keys in the pocket.
Double check. Keys.
I also have a Apple key tag on my keys now as well.
If you have an iPhone, the air tags work great.
Keith. UK 🇬🇧
Saffy please never stop giggling plus i have total respect for you, lovely lady 😃
Hope you have had a great time while here on the Island. It has so much more to offer than just the racing and bikes. Visit the motor museum in Jurby.....worth a look.
I'm planning to go hunting for some wallabies and seals!
@@SaffySprocket Fingers crossed you can see some, but they can be difficult to find.
Saffy should of told me would love to go just wouldn’t do on my own enjoy ride safe maybe next time 🏍
I did the same thing recently with my bike key n got my self an apple air tag trakker found within 20 mins have fun there
You should carry spare keys for your bike,panniers and locks(I'm talking from experience 😂). Hope you got to see some racing,I've done the TT twice in recent years and will go back again. Looking forward for your adventures on the Isle of man 👍.
Going to have to get a Apple air tag for your keys Saffy 😊😊 lose them and just ping the keys from your phone , Simples , hope you had a great time 👍👍😊
Honestly 😂 need an air tag for my common sense too
Like she knows where her phone is... 🧐
Have fun exploring, head to Ballagh curraghs (back of the wildlife park) to hunt for wallabies. I will keep an eye out and give you a wave is I see you.
If you get the chance pop down for the southern hundred down at Castletown. It's the friendly races and you'lll get closer to the roads and riders and save a fortune on accommodation and food.
Wasn't sure if I would have seen you at Dave day barrow.
But I accept At the TTs as a reasonable excuse.
Definitely make it happen again. TTs that is.
IOM is amazing for the Manx races as well especially if you also like the classic racers.
I was quite surprised they held it at the same time!
All you needed was an alarm clock and you would have been fine. I'm assuming you were logged into the TT and Manx Radio websites to follow the race schedule. Can't wait for your next uploads - I bet you had a blast!!!
Hope you enjoyed the trip Saffy, I did wonder if you might have took a wrong turn and inadvertently entered into the race. 😂😅
😂😂😂 I got into a wee bit of trouble
@@SaffySprocket Shenanigans 🤪 make for the best stories.
Hopefully, next year I can come ❤
Come with meeeeeeee
Your lost key and getting lost, reminded me of my best friend, she is very much like you.
To late to tell you to Douglas promenade, that's where all bikes are, great atmosphere
Saffy at the TT yeah 😄
😁😁😁😁
" A lightbulb hurts." 🤣🤣🤣 This is consumer advice nobody gets. Only explorers of Saffy Sprocket's world and mind will find helpful.
I'm the reason random things have warning stickers 😂
@@SaffySprocket 😂😂😂😂
Hope you enjoyed yourself I o m is a amazing place ✨️
It wouldn't be a true sprocket adventure without losing keys and getting lost and setting up camp in the dark.😂
The weathers been pretty rubbish this year, were currently parked at onchan in the rain again lol. Other than the weather it seems to have been a week of clowns, idiots wandering on the track, bikes parked on the circuit, vans blocking ambulance exits, drones, selfie sticks, cyclists on the mountain, the list goes on.
Weve both said it would be good to rake the bikes over just to explore the island when its quieter and theres no racing on.
Weather is awful 😞
Hello Saffy,
Do you just use your phone for navigation or do you use a dedicated GPS?
If GPS which one?
Thank you for the great videos!!
I just use Google maps :-)
Have a spare key made and sew it into the lining of one of your boots, gloves or helmet.
What is happening regarding your Honda cb500x that is still in Norway Saffy.😊👍🏍
Saf , key comes out of bike , goes in right pants pocket ALWAYS . Never anywhere else .
Don't put it down 😂 put it awaaaaaay
Ok, that's NOT the first time you've lost your key... put it on some kind of hook... CARABINER ... AND HOOK IT TO YOUR INSIDE JACKET POCKET (Not yelling... EMPHASIZING)
Think I need to put myself on a carabiner 😂
@SaffySprocket I put a "cube" tracker on mine... BUT.... it doesnt work in the mountains for some reason... I haven't lost them ... I just test the tracker to see if its working (and it doesnt , very well)❤️🌹❤️
@@SaffySprocket😂
Did you sell the CB500X ? Great video as always girl
Saffy left the CB500X in Norway after she hurt herself & had to fly back to UK ...
I just got back 👌
How did you find it
@@SaffySprocket last min booked the ferry, didn’t book a campsite, found 1 at midnight loads of space so no issues. Was my 4th trip to TT. Just wish they had it in the summer 😝
Has anyone worked out yet why the ferry cant arrive at a reasonable hour while its still light. The tides cant be that unpredictable. I've never arrived in Ireland or france or spain in the dark; so why do i have to find my airbnb in the friggin dark (i don't camp because i've learnt my lesson.....it's shit🚽) a great place on the corner of glendaragh road but a bastid to find late at night. Also, why isn't there a sign pointing to the ferry terminal.....it's right next to The Liverbuilding but with sodall signage. Cocks
They take it in turns to arrive from different ports :-)
Hi Saffy, what are you using for voice audio? Its becoming really hard to hear and the voice overs also sound muffled.
My mic was damaged in my last accident 😭 haven't gotten round to replacing it yet
@@SaffySprocket ah I see. Hope you can get it sorted. Also curious what’s happening with your other bike?
Pity the weather is mostly rubbish,😅
It was so rubbish
@@SaffySprocket yea, sunglasses rearly used over here
Put your bike on a lanyard as well
😂
I promise I didnt laugh at any of your misfortunes....until you introduced your lightbulb and promptly smacked your head on it!
😂 wasn't my.... Brightest moment
When you're early the event will most likely never start on time.
Arrive late and it may be over. Hope you set your phone alarm sleepy head.
Honestly 😂
I have absolutely no idea what I just watched or why.
I’m a sucker for ferry rides, living in Seattle…spoiled. I admit it was TT clickbait that drew me in. Oops. 👍🤪🏳️🌈
I like your videos, but please get your mike and sound sorted, I struggle to hear you !
Your always loosing keys 😂
🤦♂️
Dear Saffy you know how to make your presence known 🤣
warning it's easy to lose track of time do make a point of seeing the sights,
I do hope you have a great time 😉🤗🥰
Good point! 😉☝🏻
@@SaffySprocket I spent a lot of time post racing just taking in the island, so much to see, have fun good night Saffron 🤗
Your doing great girl keep it up but please fix your keys to something .our hand them round your neck,,enjoy funny .its a great place..
Thank you! Will do!
