    I will definitely be there. Not sure if I am going on the bike or in the car yet. Might travel up Saturday and Sunday. It's only 30 minutes away from me. Rollsroyce is going so I will hopefully catch up with him

    Weather is looking on the up, so looks like I'll be heading over Sunday morning. Never been to watch at Thruxton before, what's the ticket price on the gate??

    bloody hell Art, would have been good to meet up. I'm uploading pics now.

    Was a great weekend, lovely evening on Friday. Sat was dry until lunch time then it started to drizzle until about 8PM was very windy on the night so not much sleep. The camping facilities were fine, could have been much worse that I have seen in le mans for the 24 hour car race I've been to many times.
    the only downer was the rain and Mud, which was like being at Glastonbury. loads of cars, camper vans getting stuck. Not us though :)
    the Sunday was good and mad up for the poor weather on Sat. was great to get up close and personal with the racers on the open put lane, and paddock access. spent lots of time talking to a few racers, tyre guys and getting interesting feedback etc,,,

    all in all the family, myself and friends really enjoyed the weekend and we are hoping to get another weekend in this year. also maybe a day to a local'ish track

    It's a top series the BSB. The racing is always bloody good and the blokes seem to be very approachable. :D

    Loved it and was looking last night if there was a weekend I can Do again with the family but either they a 200miles away (to far for the kids) or its a weekend when we are away. Or to close to kids important dates for school events

    So maybe a day trip to BSB say at donny, silver stone or maybe Brands
