Righto, as there are 5 pages of the other thread, I thought I’d just gather together who’s going and when as there seems to be a little contignent of LB’ers going.
I think we are all pretty much going at different times, but shall we all gather for a convoy back down the M1?
Car I dont mind helping out with a pillion fella, but it would involve them coming up to leeds with me and getting lashed (just kiddin).
Seriously though, if there is a way to work it, and you want to go on the bike, I will try and help out. Plus you wont get stuck in the traffic after, as by the sounds of it, this is going to be worse than the MotoGP.
Will look at a map of the circuit later and will try and sort a meeting spot out. My bro in law is mad about that circuit so he might be able to provide advice on that.
Cheers for the thought - we could send Rob to Leeds but at 15 he might cramp your style or show you how its done
We cant go without him - he is a keen race fan so the car it is hopefully the campers will provide a barbecue & entertainment whilst we wait for the car parks to clear
My Dad races there and said Craner Curves from the inside is good but he doesnt tend to spectate much so your brother would have a much better idea. I guess they have screens now like Silverstone ?
More likely show me how it’s done mate. I am not out drinking, but the offer is there anyway if I can help somehow.
Last time I went to Donny was a few years back for the GP and there weren’t any screens, but things have been developed since then, so hopefully for the better. Couldn’t get passed the paddock as they had shut the whole area off, had to walk around the whole circuit just to get to the other side and they weren’t letting people on the infield.
I think there will be tickets on the door mate, false economy if they let everyone have them at the reduced price. Ticketmaster probably only gets a certain number, the rest reserved on the day.
Think Lusty is going on sat, so am sure she’ll let you know.
Yes I am, you’re quite right. MacP: If I manage to get some in my hot little hands, I will give you a buzz and see if you want me to get you one for Sunday!
I’ll be the one wearing the bike gear also, and a pink carnation!
Will try and sort something out re meeting place. Those going on the sunday, PM each other and sort out a meeting place to travel together. Topgooner already mentioned 8am at the Ace.
Change of plan !! We will now be going in a hire car not my car as some kind lady in a volvo 4x4 rear ended us last night with much force - another classic car off the road forever
We are ok - whiplash injury but nothing to stop us going to Donington in a free hire car
XC90, that’s what I mean, C70 is the sexy new convertible, want one of those too (am I really saying I want volvo’s, I must be getting old)
Glad you’re ok fella. Bro has come up with a plan for donny, will sort it out later. Trouble is, all the maps are in PDF and this site wont upload them
For anyone who’s bothered, there is a small MCN gathering after the second race at the dunlop bridge. I am probably going to meet a few peeps never met before.
