Is marshalling included in this cost BTW or will we need to provide marshals?

Oh no no no no no.

We have people like Gerry who have never been on track before.

I'll be inters, Gerry and the other track n00bs (Ghost Rider) will be in novice. Original Nuttah Paddy and yourself Garth will be in fast (with Davo), and G will be an instructor.

Simples.


Fine, but touring tyres and I can't remember where Brands goes. I have a whole book of racing excuses. Wink

I'm up for this, and might be able to rope in a couple of mates. I have one who is almost definitely up for it. Assuming the date and cost is good!

Hardly unexpected with a bank holiday weekend.

Just a small point, obviously since paddy is the one arranging this is is his choice but personally I would much prefer it if it was kept to BCF members, im sure we all know a handful of biking friends who would be up for a free/cheap track day, who wouldn't!

Maybe +1's if the numbers are looking low, just seems any more than that and it will be less of a forum thing compared with if the majority of us have met one another through various bcf meetups.

Was intending it to be for BCF. If numbers are slacking then +1's shouldn't be an issue.

This sounds like a good way to get used to the cbr and see some bigger numbers on the dials - can I go in the n00b bit please? As with the others, date dependant, and happy to pay my way

If possible, this would be awesome. As long as there's a mong group and I can get leathers, I'm down for it.

I'd be interested in this, over 160 miles and I don't have any leathers.... also would my vfr be allowed with a little bit of work?

Although I did see someone mention about 44 and 34 jacket and trousers Wink (close enough)

***Edit***

A bypass 2 years ago wouldn't affect me being able to take part would it?

Up for this, date dependent of course. It's only about 100 miles for me. If that. Fuel station just down the road, and on site too.

I'd happily come along and be support crew, marshall, tea maker or whatever - date dependent. I 'could' also provide overnight accommodation for a biker if needed. Thumbs Up
