Anyone remember reading this in a magazine over the last few months? I think there was an article in Bike, but could have been Ride. It was about a public racetrack that the French opened just outside Paris. Iirc it was opened to allow the boy racers somewhere to go after a series of deaths on public roads. The journalist went there and it sounded pretty good!
(I'm going to be that way in a few weeks so I'd like to go) ![]() I just need the name of the place so I can google it tA very much (fingers crossed somebody knows) |

they can't even control their cars at 30mph in the "Le ASDA" car park, what makes you think it's going to be any safer with them on a racetrack?

I've heard about it.
Isn't it free to use? And supposed to be a good little circuit for smaller bikes (France having 100bhp limit). So the SV's should be great round there? There were saying R1's etc usually get out of 3rd. |
