Some have been known to use it on occasions. At least twice, until there was a string of accidents and people complained.

No limits are running one at Anglesey on the 7th December. I'm going there for the 1st time. I always seem to end up at Oulton Park, so it will make a nice change. My son has said that Anglesey is awesome, so I'm looking forward to it. It's only £49 as well, just hope the weather is good

The first gear 25mph one just before the main straight?

Its not brilliant, but was great for outbreaking people on and getting away early on the SV lol

I liked silverstone GP, but it is SO big and SO wide for the little SV.......wouldnt mind going back on the RR

I'd already seen that and I will only be about 2 miles away in Rhosneiger on a weekend away with friends. Unfortunately though, no bike allowed . I may pop down for a look though before we head home.

I'd do Silverstone. Loads of space and big run off. Good facilities too
