Findings

For ease of analysis, we structure the findings according to the three groups of people encountered: spectators , volunteering facilitators (i.e. the marshals) and race participants.

Spectators’ Participation

With regards to the spectators, we interviewed people from Canada, Germany, New Zealand, England, Norway, and Italy. Many visitors were couples on holiday, by themselves or with friends, followed by (male dominated) small groups. The predominant age range was 35+ and the mode of transport by and large was motorcycles, at least on the island. Some loaded their motorcycle onto a van or on a trailer when travelling from England or continental Europe as this was more comfortable and/or did not cause damage or increase wear and tear on their classic motorcycles. One group from Norway arrived with their own boat, carrying their motorcycles as cargo. The majority of spectators were repeat visitors to the island in general and the event in particular.
