A while ago I was asked what circuits/tracks I have been to.
So I’m starting a list.
Please list what tracks you have been to. Can be ridden or just spectated:

Re: What tracks have you been to
That's not a very long list?
Of all the things I have ever lost, I miss my mind the most .....

Re: What tracks have you been to
What was Nurburgring GP like?
Re: What tracks have you been to
Not that good actually. It was redesigned by Schumacher for F1 apparently.
Over the back was ok where it dips down and back up again it flowed nicely but the rest was too stop-start.
Worst was the end of the main straight into the first corner. From flat out it dips down out of site and kinks right. We had two big accident with multiple bikes down and guys having fisty cuffs in the gravel. Because it stands you up braking hard and throws you together on the outside edge. Every session someone was going through the kitty litter.
I found it was safer to come up the straight in the middle and aim for the pit exit white line. Then you would be in the middle as you approached the corner and on the inside of everyone.

Re: What tracks have you been to
Only ever played it on the Xbox 
would love to give it a go.
I would say that first corner is ridiculous and the first few after but After that looks amazing.
Plenty of elevation change and a mix of lefts and rights. That super quick right on the back straight before the chicane looks ballsy

Re: What tracks have you been to
Some odd Euro ones I've visited ...
Reims GP - long disused roads circuit, pits/stands famously still at side of roads. You can still ride almost the full circuit.
Pau - there is a street circuit in the centre of the town, still used for an annual historic race. Not to be confused with the separate track about 10 miles or so away.
Dijon - we were staying nearby and the gite owner mentioned racing that weekend so we went for a look.
Ledenon - once again, camping at nearby Pont du Gard, saw it on the map, went for a look.
Montjuich Parc, Barcelona. Another long closed street circuit in a suburban park, you can still follow the course.
Circuit Carole, Paris. Owned by the council, you could rock up, pay a few Francs and pretend you were Christian Sarron .... Or at least, you could in the mid 90's
Le Mans - camping on the infield of the Bugatti circuit one year for the car race, on the Sunday evening we were able to sneak out and ride from the dip after the Dunlop bridge all the way around until almost back to the start/finish straight. The public roads from tertre rouge to after arnage were all open by then.
Paul Ricard - if you haven't experienced an endurance race there (preferably in the late 80's/90's), you haven't lived!
Monaco - been around the parts you can whilst no racing on (it doesn't flow as a route away from race day), it's still on my wish-list to visit whilst racing is on.
