I’m not qualified to say yet as only done a few but you’ll be hard pushed to beat Oulton!


Shammy and Menzies - would probably agree?!

For me my fav is Pembrey as it was my first and I've always had a blast.

Then it probably has to be Cadwell Park
Then Donington
Then Silverstone GP
Then Llandow

But it all depends on the day, the weather and the people your there with.

In 2019 I will be visiting a few different tracks to add to my UK list.

My favourite uk track would have to be Donington.

Oulton Park, close second.

I would like to go back to Cadwel.

I think Pembrey is a Dark horse, and sometimes underrated . I speak to a few people on the travels.. And the story goes, if you can go around pembrey quick it will set you up for other tracks.

For me Oulton Park is by far the best. Great facilities and great track. Mix of fast stuff and slower corners with a good banked corner some up and down but not to much.

Then Bedford, great track, fast, free flowing, flat. Has garages but basic ones and not great power availability and not a lot of dates throughout the year for bikes.

Then Cadwell. Track is half fast and half tight and twisty, is very billy goat country and major hight change. No garages but the cafe is ok.

Then Mallory and Pembrey about the same. They are both similar tracks, they both have little to no facilities but worth a visit as the tracks are both free flowing and good fun to ride.

Then Silverstone, great facilities very expensive but the track is massive, like to massive and didn’t enjoy it that much.

Have not done Donnington yet but expect good things
Have done Brands Hatch in a car but not on a bike and both the GP and Indy track is worth the trip and has good pitt garages.

Hope that helps

Hmmm... tough call, pretty close between Cadwell (more varied track, better fun on a SuperDuke) and Oulton (still a great track, better facilities) - I'd say even between them. Neither can come close to Mugello, but you need a quick bike to enjoy that one properly.
