Are you serious mallory sucks balls it a big badly surfaced carpark ok it's cheap at about £85 but there are cheap dates at donington on 14/7 & 10/8 at £105 each that £20 more to ride one of the best tracks in the world (according to a certain V Rossi) not only are there these dates but also others look in this section for the other dates I have booked in setwmber and October.
The only downside is they are quiet days but the track is worth it ask anyone who has ridden both tracks which they would rather ride again!


Edited to add, Reading back hhrough this thread mallory is more exspensive that these dates and it's still 98db, the only plus is it's a weekend but most people who have posted have said weekdays are fine.

Only my twopeneths worth but if you want to do these dono dates you better pick a date and quick because they won't last long at that price

Oulton Park is awesome, especially for 400's.

Donnington circuit layout has changed now :?:

I hear you Billy. I agree that Mallory is bobbins compared to Donington but Mallory is not very intimidating and you get more laps for novices to learn it.

I think we should have several organised trackdays a year and a main summer meetup where we can get lashed, eat some beer, ride some bikes and get LP to do a star turn :shock: 8-)

I am doing Cadwell on the 14th with another forum as they are dedicated to getting out there. They have discounts arranged etc and probably put 10-15 people out every few weeks it seems!

This site is my no1 location on t'interweb... proper sad in a way, but this is a superb site and I like it here :wanker: :o :ugeek:

So - the end of the day it is money where your mouth is time and so we need to pick somewhere, arrange it and get it sorted. It has been a while since Hipringle cut Fontyyy up into Coppice at Cadwell... :blowout:

We need to recognise that southeners don't like to come up north as we have hills and the best tracks and that northeners don't want to go down south as it is soft down there :poke: (and there are no hills, pies or cheap ale)

Nothing wrong with coming up north, maybe if we arranged some camping booze and food it would be worth a road trip up north?

Soft down here :? , you must have been to the posh parts then :poke:
