Moi, want to book early so I get into inters so make your mind up!
I can do either day but would prefer it if you chose a dry one!

Make your minds up quickly. Double dates like this book up quickly, chances are that it'll be full this time next week.

Looking at doing one of the two, waiting on matt@small boy to email/call me back re bike hire.

I'll be the one in novice wobbling around..

As above. Let me know on here if Mat doesn't reply, as he's normally very good at this, so it might not have arrived.

Thanks.

Sent it to his @sky address as per the website, was just before lunch time yesterday. I assume he is out and busy with clients so was going to give it until tomorrow before i call him and chase it up.

Holding off buying days before i know if a bike is available as i do not want to use mine.

There will be bikes available without any doubt, as he's got a pretty good fleet now.

Give him a call, if he can't answer it will go through to his missus who will be able to help you out. She is the diary keeper now.

£50 deposit over the phone and the rest on the day.

I will be bikeless

Should I see if Mat will lend you his Blade. We know how much you love Hondas.

[mckeann]

I'm there. One bike will be on its way to Brno with Fleegle and Mitzy's, te other will be doing croft on the 19th and then this double header.

Lion, are the bikes secure if left overnight at the circuit??? I'm assuming you're going home for the night and not camping???

Who's doing Oulton 23rd/24th, loon, BN, McKean.. anyone else?

I plan to do one of those days, not quite comfortable booking both in view of my recent experiences, prefer not to use 2 days holidays up in one go too..but 99.99999999% sure the bike will be spot on. New wheel bearings on order for both sets of wheels, new head bearings and all linkages/swingarm bearings checked and greased.. plus full suspension refurb can't be much else!!

Afraid I can't promise that!!! Tues may be preferable then.

Loon I'll hire a van or if Graham's going I'll a lift on the trailer really can't justify the 2 days until I'm 100% happy it's sorted having successfully ridden it.

Yep. I normally get the keys for the garage and lock it up for the night. It also puts us in charge of who gets in the following day

[mckeann]

Shall we just hire a garage between us?? £40 a day between 4 of us isn't the end of the world

They don't hire garages at No Limits, it's first come, first served. I can try to reserve one as long as there are a few of us going. It needs to be a minimum of 8 for me to blag it though.

I've booked on for the Tuesday in novice. Will chase Mat in a bit.

Now need to start worrying about coffee cake and jaffa cakes - oh and new gloves, if my two-piece will be fine, if it will rain and if i need bike waterproofs.. etc. etc.

You have the luxury of being guaranteed a garage, with pit crew and refreshments provided, so no need this time. When youngest a trackbike though, then all of the above will be expected. Come and find us and say hello though on the day.

If he has a bike.

Have you got something else incase he is booked?

[BobSaunders]

If i can not get a bike i will move it to another date.

I've called and no answer (including no answer when re-directed). Pinged a text message out.

If you say that Mat is quite responsive, then i hope everything is ok (or they are on holiday).

It's a busy day for No Limits with Portimao, Croft, Anglesey and Mallory all running. He's probably run ragged on at least one of those days.

Agreed, he is alone at the minute. He is normally pretty non stop during the day with the 5.
