Probably early yet but is there normally a group meet at such an event?

Does it appeal to anyone?

Ride out / Camp ?????????????

Meet/rideout/camp...all appeals to me.
Reasonably central location too.

Some even go to the dinner with the stars

Lets hope spring comes early or they'll need snow chains...

jimz750 · 08-12-2010, 07:35 PM

Camping at the end of March!!! avin a larf ain't you.
If you can find anyone brave or daft enough, then there is a brilliant camp site ajoining the circuit opposite the pits, from Donington Park main entrance, just follow the signs for Melbourne & it just a mile or so up the road on the right hand side.
All the marshals stay there, there is also a hotel / b&b on the same site, so you can get breakfast.

I went to the WSBK meeting at Donington in April a few years ago & it snowed.

Camping is fine... as long as you have a double glazed caravan with good heating.
Looking likely that we could be there, will update when its firmed up tho

Your full of Joys!!! Weather is non predictable in Blighty.
Luckily I will be tucked up in my own bed as I live only 8 miles away! and No unfortunately I don't have any spare beds.

I'll be going, probably in whatever weather, on the bike.

Will the 'Dinner with the stars' be off this year, as there's no official Ducati WSB team?

I've been to Donington once before and its been dry

Had a few good weekends camping there too even in the wet..

jimz750 · 16-01-2011, 05:48 PM

Pass but who knows what they'll do as it's a big return series.

16-01-2011, 09:18 PM

I'll be there for all 3 days. I'm hopefully Marshaling with the Mrs...

Camping..... Not a chance... Express by holiday inn at the airport... Yes you bet.

I doubt the dinner will happen as there is no official team unless one of the other teams agree to host
