Re: Carbon Fibre wheels

you got to hire a van, for couple days, make sure it got a way to get bike in it, stay at B&B because most tracks are too far to do in one day, pay for the track day itself so all in all I guess you looking at £400 ish. A lot of dosh for one day of fun.

Re: COBWEB RIDE - Sunday March 24th
