I don’t know yet. According to fb they’re reducing the number of groups to two so I guess it’ll be less busy than usual. I normally get there late and camp on the grass and set up the gazebo there. It’s a bit quieter.

I think @weeksy is dropping his gazebo about 6 so might have his funky banner on it ….. that would be a clue but yeah the Multi will be there and my little Green tent not far behind on the grass

It'll have the banner yes.... RED Gazebo.

Excellent, look forward to meeing you- are you a PB-er too?

Pb-er??

Performance Bikes Forum?

Aaah….. no
Know bowman through a r1 forum and have been doing the odd trackday with him over the last couple of years

Have a great weekend guys - I've had a trauma of a week topped off by booking the wrong train to get us back from France which meant we only landed home early hours of Wednesday, so not going to ride through the forecast monsoon tomorrow. Hope it stays dry for you down there.
@weeksy happy to stick some funds in the beer and BBQ fund if you're out of pocket

Definitely seen worse...

So have I- on the BBC weather site this morning, so I'm choosing not to look at it any more

This one is my current favourite


Anyway, van now packed (relative term ), I'm off out on a couple of errands now, will be setting off early/mid afternoon all being well

no reason mate. Trackdays are more @Welsh Muffin thing and i like to look after her and her bike more than myself.

The BBC used the company who bid the lowest amount though and their forecasts suck balls

What a bloody palaver this camping is. so much more shite to fix to bike. Bring back Premier inn.

On a positive note, once set up, comfy clobber and beer in hand, all will be good.

Will help the wheelies too by the look of that lot , not that the MT needs it!

Stopping at CK supermarket on the way through, do you need anything fetching?

My plan is to arrive about 5 or 6 , set up camp, empty the top box then ride into Llanelli and get what i need for the weekend ...if you havent got JD by then i'll add it to the shopping list tomorrow evening

If you forget anything or can't get a box of beer in let me know and I'll pick one up on the way through. I should be stopping at CK ten minutes from the circuit by about 7.30-8.00 traffic allowing.

I've stuck the awning on the van. It's only me and Pedro at the moment so if any of you are stuck out in the rain or want to put your bike in it overnight you're more than welcome. I should be getting there about 7 ish. Big blue awning. Are we parking in the usual spor?

So I don’t get to prove the SV is faster than the 690 ? Tbh at cadwell the kramer 690’s were 3s off the SV lap record
