Castle Combe Bikesafe day - June 2nd
This is a copy of what I have recieved today;
Alun, Just to let you all know that the South West Regional Bikesafe and Castle Combe Track Experience takes place this year on Saturday 2nd June 2012. This follows the same format as previous years. This year we are sponsored by **** Lovett Motorad and stunt rider Mattie Griffin will be doing his thing In the arena, you can then meet him on the **** Lovett Motorad stand. You can now book and pay online for this year which is a big improvement at www.bikesafe.co.uk/castlecombe. (Should the link not work copy it into your browser) Again we will have family attractions, bouncy castles and quad bikes. Entry to the show and parking remains free of charge.

Yes Rally, she can't flatten a computer by sitting on it because she weighs the same as a ham sandwich.

The voices in my head are saying "don't listen to the nasty man, just remember, power to weight ratio, power to weight ratio, power to...."
Anyway back to the thread thingy.... Rally you said this Castle Combe thing was really good last year? I'd be tempted as I didn't make it last time. |

You'll have no argument from Rally or I about power to weight ratio...

Bex, my weight ratio is improving by the day! It needs too mind..........
As to the Bikesafe, it was good. Last year it was £25 so it has gone up a bit. There were trade stands selling bits and bobs, but no stunt rider last year though, so that will be a good improvement. As to the riding we did, you do an hour on the road observed by Mr Bobby, then get told what he thought of it., followed by 15 minutes on the track. Last year Steve on his 696 and me on the Rs had a ball, riding around the outside of 1000cc Jap bikes. It's well worth the money and a good morning/day out. |

Guys, if you can, do this. As Alun says I had a blast.
The two of us were thundering through the Wiltshire countryside at around 70mph (85...) with a Police FJR1300 on our tail. Probably looked like something off Police, Camera, Action! And he gave me some great feedback. And never mentioned my slight mph indiscretions Martin, bring the 796 for the track action, otherwise you won't keep up..... <I'm only kidding!> |
