Today is the first of two days dedicated to road racing events on the Isle of Man at the Motorcycle Live show in Birmingham.
The emphasis is on the Classic T.T. next August whereas next Sunday, the final day of the show, is called Mad Sunday with T.T. 2014 in the limelight.
Announcements expected later today include the theme for next year's Classic T.T. which highlighted 1967 and the great race between Mike Hailwood and Giacomo Agostini at the inaugural one this year.
