Well ... I should hope not!

Besides, she's a joint member of DSC, and rides a 620 Monster, so I'd hope to not have an uphill battle.

Might ride there, not far for us. We've got a folding trailer, which might come along in a car with the (soon to be purchased) race fairing, fuel, cakes, red wine, etc. No idea (yet) how long it takes to swap a fairing. I've never even had the top fairing off

Marvellous. Mine's a large glass of red wine.

Oh and WJB, I know that feeling where your daughter is taller than you. Happened to me when Jo was 14. I threatenend to slap, she stood over me, thrust out her chest and said "I'll slap you back". It was at precisely at that moment that I acquired the negotiation skills that I now find so useful!

There's a reason for everything.

Right. That's me signed up for Good Friday now.

We might both be riding there, or we might bring the Vitara with trailer stowed in the back. Either way, I'll make sure I pack cakes and red wine!
Not bothering with race fairing this time around, has to be less risk than riding on the roads, eh?

What's the deal on fuel for those who ride there? I got the idea from reading other messages that some ride, some drive.

And the red wine references. I assume many are staying there the Friday night? Only those with vans, or camping?

We live south of Cadwell, not too far. 45 miles and just over an hour according to the AA routefinder. If anyone is travelling up some distance and wants a comfort stop (wee break), breakfast, or a previous night stopover then let me know.

Fuel:
Not available at the circuit on track days. There's a garage (cash only) about a mile or so outside the gate, but I'll be bringing a 20 litre jerry can which should be enough to feed 2 bikes, so if you ride then you're welcome to dig in.

Overnight:
Campling ain't allowed at the circuit any more. Nice of you to offer a stop over but I'm booked into a b&b about 10 mins from the track. Will u2u the name of the gaff if you fancy joining us the eve before?

Wine & cakes:
Sounds like you'll be an asset to the club!!
