Anyone from here going? We are going Wednesday night and camping till Sunday.
Shame Rossi isn't still on the Honda but he is making that Yamaha work...and it would be no fun if it was too easy. :)

Blimey, that's commitment!
Yeah, I'll be there. First time at a MotoGP, though I never miss Brands World Supers. Can't wait to hear the GP bikes at full chat. And hopefully Edwards will be competitive, he does know the track after all.
Enjoy your weekend

I go to the superbike events too, mainly the BSB ones but I was a bike fan before cars and I never really watch car racing.
It should be a good weekend. Fingers crossed for the weather. I am going for the riders for health day of champions on the Thursday.. :) thats always good.
Might be going, depends if I can get free tickets from work?
One thing I know... Traffic will be fecking nightmare :rolleyes:

It sure will, hence the 2nd reason I am going to camp.. lol Sure beats sitting in traffic wishing I was on two wheels but unable to because we are taking the kids.
I'm hoping to get down there on the bike for thursday, all depends on work, as usual :(
I went there last year and it was brilliant :nod: :thumbs: and the Ducatis sounded awesome :nod: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: absoloutly out of this world :nod: :smitten: :cool:

I saw a Red S14/S15. ( sorry not to good at telling the difference and didnt see what reg) It was very clean, ( not sure how that was managed as mine was filthy after 5 days parked up)
Very nice with the sxoc stickers up the sill.
Had a good time even with the rain. Race was rather good too...and you could hear the Kwaks and the Ducatis a mile off...

LOL... The traffic has been in LOADS of the papers today... My friend had a problem on his pulsar but wanted to get to billing... he sorted his problem and set off at about 10.30... at 12.45 he was still just outside derby on the M1...
i can't believe we had a weekend with a more exciting GP then Moto GP :wack: :)

It took me 2 hours to do 2 miles but once in Donington village It only took me a further 20 mins to get home. A friend of mine who went with us and was parked at the far end didnt get back to Derby till 11:30pm, like us they were in their car at 5:15pm.
This was the improved traffic system too.

I'd like to tow the organiser, behind my car, with a rope around his feet! :rant:
Just 1 second for every minute I was stationary, would do ;)

According to the news.. they are going to see "IF" the traffic arrangements need revising.. "IF" Bloody "IF".... The local police have been accused of adding to the jams by doing roadside checks on vehicles.
Although I didnt see any.

Thought about it but 6 kids 3 tents and enough food to feed an army weren't going to fit on the bike.. ;)
