I'm only going to Silverstone again
 
Anyone fancy it? Tuesday 29th April. Should be 7X 20 minute sessions. I'm in novice, have three mates in middle and one in top. Not very may spaces left. Got it for ?137 so should be able to do the same for you.

PM me if anyone's game.
:)

How did that costy if you don't mind me asking sounds good. I don't think I'll be able to do it, I hope to be on the race bike a few days before that....Not too mention work is very slow at paying my overtime:mad:

Nice. You ever been there? If not it's chalk to Silverstone's cheese. I'm scared to go back there. But I will go back there.

I'd like to do a bit of that too. By all accounts they're very good.

The best money I spent on my first house was on concreting the front and rear gardens. I had loads of bike parking space then...mind you I was only 19 and didn't think about the long term effects on values.

When I sold the house the first bloke to look at it snapped it up because he hated gardening, and I got the asking price.

Cadwell is a beast, its not far from me and have been a few times, but I havnt plucked up the balls to go on a bike yet.

Whole track has next to no run off.
There is very bumpy surfaces in areas, mansfield in particular is a bugger as its down hill and the temptation to brake catches alot of people out.
The mountain can catch you out.
Hall bends are awkward, everywhere can be completely dry but it will still be damp under those damn tree.

Amazing place though, its like a mini nurburgring.
