not raced there but we had a very slow wobble round on the big bikes a few weeks ago and I reckon it will be a great DD circuit :)

I'm not so sure that the cork screw will be quite like laguna seca, I can just imagine it,,,, 50mph winds, Sea spray smearing your visor, Sideways rain, -2 degrees with the wind chill, no hot showers afterwards and a burger van instead of a heated café

Still the black ribbon looks fantastically technical and I really can’t wait to have a go!

just pack your wet gear and some thermal pants. :)

p.s. I hope the above is all wrong and we have a lovely weekend.

The tarmac at Anglesey looks a damn sight better than the stuff at the top of the corkscrew in Monterey!

Trust me though, the paddock at Laguna is VERY basic.

Weather is awesome though! ;)

well hopefully the weather will be great for us. We were lucky when we went to have a fantastic day!!

The tarmac is in great condition but is a little hard on tyres so be prepared!

Corkscrew is actually quite good fun... in fact most of the circuit is. Late Apex here we come!!!

Paddock at Anglesey is a bit rough but there’s electric (don't forget a 16Amp plug!!). Showers and toilets are clean and a world better than Donny, Cafe/Bar opens sporadically but would imagine it will be open all race weekend, beware of steep prices they can charge for egg n chips

It's a great circuit and i enjoyed it today :D
Some of the sections are a little tricky to learn.... like the blind entrance to
the chicane :o

16 Amp plugs are the blue, oval ish shaped plugs. Anglesey is one of a few circuits that only cater for this type of plug. Converter is about £5

Bung this search into EBay 230v 16amp to 13amp

You can buy them in B&Q as well-shielded external plugs-as used in motorhomes, caravans etc. But make sure you buy a BLUE one not a YELLOW one-yellow ones look the same but aren't, they are 115 volt site plugs and the pin layout is different.

it really is an ace little circuit and brilliant on a DD bike!!

I think some of you Class B boys and girls need to be nervous as I have a podium prediction after yesterday!!
