Yes, yes, yes, but as I keep saying - why let the truth get in the way of a good jest??

And of all the UK tracks it's the nearest to being a big circle (rockingham "oval" excluded) :-bd :)) :))
Rockingham went bust so you can’t ride it but then only the American shit used the oval. Everyone else used the twisty infield tracks. %-(

Damn, that's on your Door step.

I guess for that price you could almost ride there. Living further down the road always puts the price up for fuel etc.
Simon, that is doorstep. I rode to Donington and Mallory when i went to them. I always ride to llandow.

Might be a bit damp at times, but i have my 'essential helper' with his boxed in trailer to hide out in as there's no garages.

Castle Combe was good on 12th. Nice weather all day and only 2 stoppages. This was my 1st post-retirement trackday and think i wasn't too bad (for me).
