  2. Cool, you'll have a lot of fun!
     
  3. Where and when? or has she bought you a voucher?
     
  4. YOU LUCKY GIT!......all i got was a get well soon card from mine 'she dont know dutch yet'.................where?
     
  5. Castle Doom. Local to me.
    Not done one before!
    Oh Lordy!
     
  6. Think I'll accidentally leave this thread on the laptop for when the wife logs on, you never know :wink:. I did my first one last year, it was hammering down all day but still had a great time, looking forward to trying it in the day now and thinning down those chicken strips :upyeah:.
    So where is it for ?
     
  7. Relax....listen to the instructors and you'll be grinning for a week.

    Enjoy!

  8. Replies just crossed, Mine was at Castle Combe too, I know some hard core track dayers don't like it but the staff were very helpful and friendly, I'm definately going back this year before I try anywhere else. Noise limit meant I had to put stock pipes back on tho'
     
  9. I think RIchie from Louige instructs there now :)
     
  10. nelson, i agree with Anth ... pray for good weather, warm your tires, make sure you have steelbraided brakes hoses and it will be a blast!

    you'll learn more on your bike and riding in 1 day than in your whole ridingcareer.. its an absolute high!
     
  11. You'll need baffles or standard cans on to pass the noise test.
     
  12. The voucher is not for a set date, so I'm going to waiting / hoping for a sunny spell!
     
  13. Yes he does, rode a 900ss ie like mine, seemed to go much faster than mine though for some reason :smile:.
     
  14. Moved to Trackdays :smile:
     
  15. You will love it nelson :)
     
  16. You'll have a blast but be warned that it's highly addictive so be prepared to book up for more!! :)
     
  17. Oooh lovely. I've done a couple of the Bike Safe courses where they let you loose on the track for a bit and its great fun. Just relax and go at a pace thats comfortable for you and it'll be a hoot! In fact thinking about it I might have to get one myself!
     
  18. I'm booked on the Bike Safe course with a bit a track myself...:upyeah:
     
  19. Just seen the Bike Safe bit and have booked for the 20th April at Castle Combe.
