roof terrace though!

I had a chat to AK last night (spies everywhere!) and we thought it may be an idea if peeps didn't want to go all the way to Brandon, Norfolk (near Snett I think) to drop off their bikes, then perhaps we could have a get together somewhere central and perhaps combine it with a lunch or something?

Otherwise, I think MCM Motorfrieght will drive to several regions to collect bikes (at extra cost).

Will find out for definate.

I think it will be this hotel... Hotel Villa de Gor

I think it also works our at about £20 a night (extra) per person, so I guess you can book your own double room (or twin :lol: twin room I mean :o) instead of sharing with one of us hairy people :D

I will ask Gerry to pop on and answer some questions betterer :)

£20 per night plus grub etc dom?
is grub included for us who have booked or is this extra as need to budget for this
have worked out that will cost me £100 - £120 to do 2 trips to near Snett to drop of and collect bikes so if they can pick up round here for less i will save dosh and time too :)

I've emailed Gerry.

Hopefully we'll have some useful answers very soon :)

It all depends on how far away you are from Birmingham?

Reserved my place today (-:

Paul
I'm looking to reserve a spot too - maybe we can sort out some transport jointly?

Tim

Jon I live nr worcester maybe we could sort something. Chass.

I love you Hawky :lol:

:lol:

Hi Dudes

Spoke to AK ,and me and im are up for it, may have to miss his daughter's 30th but hey ho , so put us down Dom as definate maybes as AK may change job so depend on his Leave situation, but defo interested.

Moi

Have read all the thread and talked to Chass today - I'm up for the trip but have 2 questions:

1 - I'll be in the trackday group – would it be OK to use my Aprilia RS250 track bike, or do I need to make sure Louigi books my 749 engine work in before the trip? The Aprilia is cheaper to crash!

2 - Anyone else going from Bristol area? Two reasons - bike transportation to Norfolk + flying Bristol to Malaga and sharing a hire car?

Cheers,
Tom

It's ok, you'll recover ;)


Nice one!


You can ride anything you like in the trackday group.


I spoke to MCM Motofreight today, and it sounds likely that next year they will be doing a national collection service only (to/from motorway services etc), rather than a 'drop it off in Norfolk' service.

Will keep you posted as nothing is confirmed, but either way, the Louigi Moto bikes will need to go, so we can probably sort yours out as well - probably, somehow.

Cheers Dom,

I live just down the road from Louigi Moto and am always dropping in, so I'm sure I've bumped into you at some point... probably one day when Rich was throwing his toys out of the pram and swearing a lot... could be any day really ;-)

Tom

I don't believe that for one second :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'll keep updating things and PM people too with latest info.

Perhaps I should get an email database togther too. Hrmmm.

:)

help
 

:mad: just spent half hour typing loads of info out. went to preview it to check my spiling and it said I had to log in again and then it had disappeared and I'm fzxjkkkkkkkkkkkk. any way of retrieving it??:sniff:

I don't think so, I've had ths happen a few times so I type in Word and cut and past when its finished. Unless it's just a quick reply.


Mike

Thanks Mike, it was a masterpiece as well. Oh well, off to do it in word. Good advice! Gerry

We will all look forward to it then. Come on get your finger out there aint much on the telly tonight.:lol: :lol:

Mike

Telly, what's that? Right 2nd time lucky. It's not the same doing it again, the magic's gone….

Hi everyone, looks like there's a lot of interest in this and it should be a goer so a bit of info:

Hotel. We've asked the Hotel Villa de Gor to reserve us 20 twin rooms. They are yet to give us a final price for extra guests but should be around £20 a night with breakfast. We need to know pretty soon how many non-riding guests please to arrange the extra. The hotel is pretty good (we've stayed there often and it makes the £120 a night Brands Thistle look like a bad joke!) There is a gym for the supafit DD racers, a 6 person Jacuzzi for, er….family groups? A pool table, bar and a great restaurant next door with 24 hour cocktails. It's 5 minutes from the track. Guadix town is about 15 mins from the hotel and has plenty of bars and a scarey night club run by Russians where even famous BSB racers have been told off…Guadix also has one of the best restaurants in the world, ever, and it's in a cave. Cool or what? It would be a great night out for everyone so if there's an interest we'll reserve the 'big' cave.

Weather. It can be pretty parky in Feb/Mar even in Southern Spain, and a bit of snow all the way to Morrocco isn't unheard of if there's a polar airmass moving down (see those Seats spin!). However the track has only had to close because of snow on 2 separate days in separate years in the last decade. In the last such unusual cold spell teams were coming from a closed Jerez to test at Guadix so it really is in the hands of the Gods. There's usually a breeze at the circuit and in the unlikely event of overnight precipitation the track should be dry by 10ish. In general it's warm in the sun and chilly at night. So bring some woollies rather than shorts and t-shirts (will probably be 25 c now I've said that….)

Extras –
Dean Ellison should be available for instruction at very reasonable rates. Dean's one of the nicest guys you could meet and when he's not making Gurlies swoon he's one of the fastest riders out there. As he'll prove next year when he's on a decent bike…shh… (may be an honourary DDer for 07….)
Iain Wayne, ex TT racer and all round capable spanner monkey will be on hand to fix the inevitable mishaps/blowups (30 + Dukes…eek) at a small cost and we'll have tyre sales and changing facilities to hand as well.

Skiing/Boarding, Ferrari hot laps, top offroading with Redtread – let us know if you fancy making a holiday of it. We have special rates with these guys and are happy to pass them on for this event.

Sadly I've got to go to Mugello now :D , then Holland :sniff: , Germany :barfy: then Jerez :D so the best way to contact us is by e-mail please at info@racedays.net I'll then send you a 'DesmoDue and special guests' booking form and we'll confirm as soon as numbers are reached.

Thanks for the interest, it should be a blast , and thanks to the DSC forum for letting us advertise it here.:saint:

And special thanks to Dom for getting it rolling. You're great Dom.

possibly interested, one quick question though, the Racedays site says that the 26/27 Feb is exclusive BSB testing .. is their site or the dates here out of synch ?

cheers

It'd be great to see you there fella - AFAIK, this is between some BSB testing. Its a really good deal too - not sure how they're doing it, but I'm booking up before they change their mind.

Tim

Yes.

I got to amend it (as webmeister).

Our dates are DEFINATELY 24th 25th & 26th February ;)

cheers Dom, and the airport options ???

You know you want to mate, go on!

Don't let the fact that I'll be there put you off!

as long as you don't mind a bully joining in !!!!

Why, who's coming?

;)

Ooh!! Sweet!!


Sounds like a plan ;)


I used to like you! :(


Oh ok, I'll let you off (and see you there!) :D


No, no, I insist, it's all down to you mate. Thanks for doing us an incredible deal on this.

Come on peeps, get your deposits in before it's too late - Places going FAST!!!! (Honestly!)

Well, I think Granada is closest - 30 mins?

Then Malaga - 90 mins?

Anywhere else is a bit more of a trek.

Easycar (the only one I checked) do a 9 seater MPV for £170 from Friday - Tuesday. So between 6 peeps thats only £30 each.

Budget flights look to be about £40-£50 return - despite saying they should be £3.99 blah blah.

HTH
