Raced around there with me mates on quite a few occasions. Got some fantastic footage of me coming past the start finish line at 120mph on the CBR400... sounds awesome.. what you cant see though is that i outbrake myself approaching the hairpin, and have to bail out down the junction thats opposite the apex - Thank god nothing was coming!

They surface is smooth, majority of the corners have the painted apex tiles on them. All the corners are blind. At one point you go past the cliffe top cafe... its great being on the bike and wizzing past there with the people watching you. |

It's even better live!!!
"C0ck O the North" bike race last year. Was top notch racing, I'll be going again this year!! Although, I think it clashes with the Summer Org rideout this year. |

It's at a circuit called Olivers Mount, it's at Scarborough. Just checked and this year the bike racing is on the 8 / 9th July.
I'm not sure which series it is, but the race itself is the "C0ck O the North". There's plenty of other racing going on too over the weekend, bit of classic bike and classic sidecars too. Eddie Wright romped in the classic sidecars last year. |
