Hi All,

I'm off with a group of mates to Assen tomorrow for the Moto GP. about 12 of us on around 10 bikes.
Keep yer fingers crossed as last year my beloved TL thew in the towel about 2 miles outside Rotterdam just after getting off the Ferry and had a long day speaking regularly to the AA before having the joy of a hire-polo for the next few days..

Anyone else on here taking the trip?

cheers,

Nik

Thanks mate..

we're staying in a hotel not far from Gronigan.. The guys have been staying there each year for donkeys. And the owner is a serious bike nut.

Plus the variety and just sheer number of bikes that park at the Assen track on race day is a true spectacle.. Alot of older classics as well as the latest stuff which is good to see.
