Yep there is a Riders for Health bus where you can stash your gear.Costs about £1 an item,I think.Huge queues after the meeting to get your gear back tho.No changing rooms,.....hey your not shy are ya??Most folks find a bit of grass to remove the leathers.
As for parking,you will have to go where the marshalls direct you.On friday we were directed to the gravelly car park near the old main entrance.Some of the jobsworths get a bit upset if you try to park up elsewhere.Aah thats Donington for ya.

Left our helmets on the bus they used for clothing & helmets at Silverstone one year, never again, 1hr 20 mins i waited for the missus to get back with them, never again.

Righto...might give that a miss then, don't fancy waiting in queues or stripping in public - might scare the women and children ;)

thanks lads, ooh by the way, my wife was on shift today (flash paramedic ya know!) and she told me people are dropping like flies with the heat so be careful 2moro. have a good day all

The tent offering helmet storage in aid of the charity Riders for Health didn't have a queue when I went back to collect my helmet but I did collect it before the last race. It's a ****** queuing to get out of the park too. The roads are too narrow and crowded to let all the bikes through, even though many of the motorists try to move over to let you through. Great atmosphere but the downside of being badly organised and poor facilities outweighs the good, I think.
