I'll be there. Whether I go in the car or on the bike is weather dependant.

Word to the wise. I've been going to Thruxton for more years than I care to remember and there are 2 constants every year.
1. Excellent racing
2. Loads of traffic police on all the major routes looking to top up their Xmas fund. Be aware!

Ignore Toms advice at your peril...the A303 in particular has always been policed to hell every time I have been to thruxton. (Its certainly a great place to get small plate fines out of the six or so times I have been there I have copped a small plate fine twice.)

and the police on that road on that day have one agenda....so the likelyhood of getting away with a ticking off if your are on a bike are about zero. Particularly watch your speed and deffo veto any rear wheel only riding.
