I might be up for it. I'll check closer to the time. I'm shit though, I'm far too heavy for karts and minimotos plus being 6'5" means minimotos are pretty painfull.


Mr Icey is 6'3" and doesn't find it a problem! It's the way you position yourself.

It's all about having the knees sticking out and putting your foot on the pegs sideways instead of flat Thumbs Up

As ever, feel free to bring other random people along.
If they aren't used to bikes, I think we'll try and organise a little 'play' session first to get used to minimotos Smile.

I've never ridden a mini moto, and the last time I went Karting was when I was about 9. Do I get a free play session?

Yes, indeed. Hopefully with a bit better pre-planning this time as we've got a few months Smile. (Speaking of which, the video from the previous one may actually emerge some time soonish!)

As well as trackside videographers, I'll be looking to to recruit an 'admin assistant', who'll be provided with a pretentious laptop for their work!
Spent too much time running around last time trying to do five things at once.

I'll bring my video camera and plenty of batteries/tape.

Looking at my finances, I will have to change my mind about going to this.

Things are bad and will be for the forseeable future now. I will not be celebrating my 30th on the 11th of Nov either.

Deposit will probably be £11 (to account for paypal fees, hassle of paying cheques in etc), or £10 if paying by cash or bank transfer. Can start collecting them now

Ah, this sounds perfect and would love to come to something like this, but I was planning on doing something very similar for myself come December (my next birthday).

Between organising all of my friends to do this for myself, friends who aren't really that interested in this stuff, and just coming along to this with what I presume will be awesomely crazy people, I'm pretty torn.

If someone could convince me I would like to come.

Search for the previous threads with pictures - that should persuade you enough.

Didn't manage to find any previous pictures but I do want to come. I'm having a bit of a crisis with funds at the moment though so we'll have to see. I also need to take my engine apart and put it back together with a new piston at some point provided my bore is still ok Confused

Ooh, I just saw this.

I'll attend. I'll only do karting, seeing as I may still be a bit one-armed.

Jay - bring that poon again. Try not to break it this time.

This rekindles fond memories of being at Hullavington in November before, I think before they had the cafe bit. Fucking cold. That and riding home from, 150 odd miles in the pissing wet. Goose was alongside on his bros 400, with Zim on the back. Zim, being Zim, only had one glove.

So I'll be driving. Car space for those I deem worthy.
