Best one yet? That's what I kept hearing all day. There were an awful lot of things to make me think it might have been, not the least of which was the professional stunt riders aweing the crowd and Nicky Hayden catching a snack in the hospitality tent before signing autographs. Or Barber's bringing "Deja Blue" because Cook Neilson was coming. So yes, maybe it was the best one yet. Take a look for yourself and see what you think......

The new Streetfighter was on display
Binda had a giveaway, they make the Ducati watches, nice to win one of those!
Also new was Wyotech. They had a "live display" all weekend. Mechanics installed Ducati Performance parts on the spot
2009 marked the first time for Bridgestone on the Island. It was also the first time we have seen a Formula 1 Ferrari here but it seemed like a natural fit
And these guys, that's the team from DucatiUSA who was putting the show up live on the web. Yep, even DucatiUSA is on Facebook now!
And then there was this fast guy, 199.9 trap speed made him the talk of the weekend
And finally, there was the first apperance of this Hypermotard, so impressive there really wasn't much it didn't win all weekend
Thursday some of the clubs were still setting up
