As long as everyone's happy to put into a kitty to cover the costs Iain should be able to get an individual vid of everyone in actiono! Which will be nice! He's raced IOM, MRO, British and the NW200 and has been known to give Mike 'Spike' Edwards a run - so he's fairly competent on a bike! May have trouble staying with Dom though...

And following up on a previous thread we should be able to run a few sessions with practice starts for those who would like to. This would be particularly handy for any Novice racers as you'll be able to get the real 'first corner' experience. Parp. If we've got our new GPS Dataloggers we'll get them into action as well. Wow, the scrap books will be bulging!

And finally, a brief Geography numba! Cartagena is generally regarded as the warmest track in Spain due to it's proximity to the sea. Almeria is probably the driest but is higher = cooler. Guadix is about a whole 500 ft higher than Almeria I think = 1 degree cooler and at about 45 minutes distance isn't exactly in a different weather zone! Bring a jumper and sunblock!

Nice one Gerry - can we go Guadix yet?
