I might even bring my leathers now and steal the mt09 if you're stealing all my stuff.

LOL what track are you booking in France then ? :)
Croix en Ternois ;)

Not that far, in fact its closer to me via the channel tunnel than Pembrey ;)
Short and easy to learn like Pembrey and has the beautiful town of Arras nearby for drinks and food :obscene-drinkingcheers:

No bbq for me Friday as i'll grab some takeaway on the way in at the nearby chippy in Pwll i usually do :thumbup:
Awesome idea - for next year! Definitely closer for me than Pembrey :D :D

I'm trying to liberate my event shelter from a family member - if I can get info on it's condition and then arrange liberation, anyone likely to pass near Weymouth?

I’m bringing a 3x3m gazebo so we can relocate that at the end of Saturday.

Coming in the van and camping in a tent now as the steering is borked on the camper.

I'll lob mine adjacent to yours then mate on Friday when we get there and we'll have a 6*3 then.

However it won't matter as I've ordered sunshine.

Ok. I’ll be camping on the grass area rather than the concrete bit though.

We'll work it out on the days matey. Things fall into place every year, we all end up mostly together and everyone smiles.

Due to the logistics of the Vito of death we've now got a hire van for the trip once again, so 300 tonnes of bikes, kit, meat, BBQ, fridge, beer will be shoehorned into the hire van and sent down the M4 to Pembrey.

Once i've worked out what meat we're getting and how many of each, we should in theory be good to go :) I may even drag the 690 on circuit to give @Tricky someone to lap :D

Sorry to read about the Vito, shame that didn't work out, what a bummer you moved so fast on the trailer/ bike rack , but that's you eh :D
Anyway, hope the new motor does the business and you get sorted with another rack /trailer etc :thumbup:

lol yup that's me.... Once something is done, it's done and it made little sense keeping either.... at the time.

Fortunately i know the fella from KTM forum who has the trailer and he only lives in NEwbury... whilst he won't sell it back to me, he will let me borrow it when i need it, so there's no massive rush on it. I've also got the other bike rack that @crust borrowed to take his stuff home and i can steal that in the short term... Both things are easy enough if a little spendy to resolve :)

Long term forecast looks good, for now.

Just received my brake lever guard, had a faff with R&G when the one I ordered was on back order and they didn't know when it would arrive. Had to change to something more expensive.

You can borrow my double trailer for the weekend, I'm not using it.

It wasn't for this weekend i will need one matey, we've got WAY too much stuff for a Kuga/Focus on a Pembrey camping/BBQ weekend. It's more for 'other' days we'd need a trailer when the wife books Silverstone or we need to take a bike to mechanic/wherever...

Thanks for the offer though and if in the future you'd like to hire yours out for cash/beers/anything... i'm sure we could come up with a plan.

You can just borrow it when you like until I sell it. I'm probably going to sort that out in the new year ready for people looking for something for next season.

It's a Motolug TE... https://www.motolug.com/Collapsible-Mot ... Trailer-TE

It collapses down pretty small (I picked it up in a fiesta) and you can build it up as a single or double trailer. They're £1775 new but I was really lucky to get this one for £750 used which is a bargain. If you want it you can have it for that. There's bits of surface rust here and there but nothing that paint/powder coat can't be sorted out. I've put new bearings on it.

Hey all, do I just need a brake leaver guard or do I need a clutch guard too?

Also wondering about back protectors, I've got one I've had for a while (Knox Aegis), just not sure what "Approved" means and whether this fits under that category?

I'm bringing my MT-09 along and my wife's ZX6r - was going to stick a for sale sign on it and see if anyone in the paddock might be interested ;-)
Finally, Weeksy if there's anything I can bring along with me (have a van this time around) please let me know, I can always a bung a spare BBQ and coal etc... in it to help out.
