Yes, but want to save up for something decent so I'm going to buy a ropey old gixxer 750 and use that for track and road till I've got a bit more cash

If I could fit on a 600 I would have either a R6 or year old ish Kawasaki 600.

[Cunny DK]

Don't want a 600 to be honest, they are for girls and not scary enough, I enjoyed Loons/Pauls R1 so would like something with similar power, dunno what though.

Well its either got to be an 07/08 R1, 08 + Fireblade, S1000RR, ZX10 or an 09 plus GSXR-1000.

To anyone who is traveling up to this who doesn't fancy driving up in the morning then back in one day. Its only 20 minutes from Croft.

Think it sleeps 3-4, me and prolapse have booked it. £40 a night split with number of occupants. Bring a sleeping bag.

Basically a caravan/camping site with a shed that has a heater in it.

There's a place for a BBQ, few beers and sockets to charge things like laptops and phones, whilst being able to park your car & trailer in a secure paddock with it outside your pod thing.

I'll have the laptop with the tele on it, along with some speakers and a spotify pass. You don't need anything else.

I quite fancy this as itl save me fannying around at 4am I can just get it all sorted after work the night before. Will you two be turning up at about 2am though?

[moanthebairns]

No before tea time.

[Tim85]

Is there room for another or do I need my own pod thing. I can't tell how big they are. I'm not a rapist/murderer/snorer but I also don't want to really sleep top to tail with loads of sweaty men.

[moanthebairns]

I'll call tomorrow.

3 adults should be fine.

[Tim85]

Cheers, keep me posted and I'll send money through to wherever needs it

[theshrew]

Yazza / Loon / OAP any of you doing this ?

[TheLordJohn]

Might be bring my K1 750 yet, the FZR is still in a state of undress.
REALLY don't want to damage the GSX-R, though!

It's not camping your staying in a house. You just have to bring and build your own bed

When I booked on the phone NL said it was fine to pay on the day...I rang last week, in two minds whether to do it as I've had to shell out a lot this month, plus with changing jobs my pay has been sporadic.

Anyway,turns out they never actually booked me on and had no recollection of the call, so I just left it at that, at least I didn't have to pay a cancellation fee! I'll definitely be booking a few in May as I'm going to town on the bike, suspension servicing, setup, brakes, QS and it needs riding!
