?400 for a proper Origami was/would have been a steal!!

Its a shame you don't want to go (I am sure you could 'find' the money if you really had to .. bearing in mind I am currently unemployed, it is hardly a wise idea for me to go ), it was a great laugh last time!!

Looked at the website but not sure what you're talking about.
Can you explain how much it is including hire? So would I wear my own leathers & helmet?
Will I get my knee down?

Give them a ring for exacting details. But I think it is £10 for a 15min session (might be £15 for 10??) (please phone as I am not sure on the money/time). That is basically for one if their hire bikes inc fuel. They will supply kneeslider/pads too I think ... .. unlike indoor kart tracks where the hire karts are dog slow, their hire bikes are actually f-quick!!

As for stuff to take, you can take your leathers, but to be honest, trying to make the 'shapes' in leathers might be a bit tricky!! I have never even entertained the idea of doing it in leathers!!

If it helps, I wear just a boiler suit with jeans underneath, some old motorcycle gloves, a lid and some trainers.

Where it is indoors it is concrete with a protective layer, not tarmac, so you don't need the abrasion resistance of leathers, I have fallen off loads of times in my boiler suit and abrasion has never been a problem!

So, bring full leathers along if you like, but bring a boiler suit and jeans and a jumper too (you don't need a boiler suit , it just keeps the muck off the jeans).

Oh and yes, I'd be surprised if you DIDN't get your kneedown

His old bike was pretty hot ... brakes tyres, power and the RR is twice as powerful right?? ...

Hey, my 'shed' was a fair match for your super-cool bike

Go on ... you know you wanna go
