Default Re: S&W trackday, take 2?

Brans is a nice idea and i'd like to do a trackday there but its not an ideal location. For a start its not really close to any of us, i no longer have ideal access to a van so i'd be riding to the track as would most people?, people coming from a far will need digs which costs money, an evening session would still require a day off work and still maybe some digs and i'd prefer to do a full day for the sake of loosing a days money if not at the weekend...... so its not really practical for anyone........ so need to think of somewhere else

as of td insurance, like said it would probably be less than hire cost... but regardless i've crashed so many times my garage is full of sv spares

Not sure thats really the point lol. Think Brans has a no first timers policy on their evening sessions? might be wrong. Hadnt thought about track day insurance, might be a good idea though.

Castle Combe would be even better - I'm not far away and I have room for another to crash at mine and space in the garage for one other bike if needs be. I'm a 20/25 minute ride away - 15 if you push it, but I wanna stay shiny side up at least until I arrive

i dont mind were it is, i have access to vans but only one guaranteed and i can only get my bike in it with the back open so i'd rather not use it... but it would be handy with tools ect

what track will be put to vote its not my decision... same as date but we've all pretty much said after ar

Well, to say it again....if it is voted to be castle combe...everyone is welcome to crash at ours. There's room for 1-2 extra bikes in the garage, but we have hardstanding (no stones) at the side of the house. Will just need to move some stones out the way for you to get on it...lol
