If I'm right then I think you can count my 750 to be present and correct sir.
Google is a wonderful thing!

i have had the best idea ever!!!!!

how about running the track day on the weekender weekend!!!!!!!!

im goin to be paying about £200 on ferry so too make it a weekend to remember how about makin it a full one!!!

sure it will be more expensive in one go but not in the long run, plus im sure it would make people more inclined to come from afar which is the point is it not??

Hee hee - it's a good idea Ricky, but the problem is most of the weekender bods are not really track-day types - hell, it's hard enough getting them out of the bar to go on a rideout! x

Also, the cost would be hard to swallow in one hit (although I know what you're saying - in for a penny, in for a pound)...

To be honest it is far more of a laugh to do something like Mini-motos (my vote for 2009 btw.) as it is much more social, and a lot less likely to end in tears - Nonnie not withstanding of course... x

I agree with what you're saying PD - and that open air track (March Hare) is also pretty close to the really nice pub (with the five puddings) we went to this year on the National Rideout...

The only thing is, the circuit was a bit micky mouse length-wise as you say...

Maybe the Weeekender Admin crew can locate a track over Worcester way that offers good racing on a decent length (in or out-door) track?

ps. Still reckon the comedy element of mini-motos is worth the knee bending mind you x

Burt Reynolds would love the karting I think...

ANYWAY - really like the idea of the Arrow mill for the lunch on Sunday - could make a lot of peeps less wet if the weather is as we have come to know and love it in the past!!!

Phew! I went on Google Maps and the only place it found for Arrow Mill was Bradford.

Anyway, thanks for that, I'll get clicky clicky
