If it is wet, just be aware that Donny is a bit more slippery in the wet than most other tracks - although it didn't slow the experienced guys down much.

My bike's in little tiny pieces, spread between our workshop and SPR in Nottingham, so I can't get any practice in If it's not snowing I might tape the Aprilia's radiator up and take her for another run

Don't forget there's no garages at Donny currently, just been demolished, no idea if there's still power etc for warmers

I've just booked 5th December, No Limits, Donington GP circuit. As none of my trackdays so far this year have given me the warm, dry, sunny weather I hoped for, I'll be glad to be out there as long as it's not snowing. I just want to get the bike on the track to see how she handles. If it's a short day because it's brass monkeys, I reckon at £69 I'll still get my money's worth.

I don't think the issue of madness is in question, here
