As the title says

Practice in the morning and timed runs in the afternoon

£10 per adult entry for all day and inc a programme is excellent value

Butty and Pie Wagon with good coffee

Plenty to see and excellent for photographs as you can get close to the action in a lot of places

Cheers
Trickie

Might pop along to this. When does it start?
btw as well as Leedsfest there is the Harewood show, so expect jams on the A61

Hi Mark

Sorry didn't have chance to chat

Very windy there but at least no rain (as my wife said it poured down in Bradford at one stage)

Just working thru some of my many pics

Loved watching the motorbikes for a first time and generally a very good day again

Good to chat to everyone.

Two identical times, very impressive Peter.

http://markh.talkaudiohosting.co.uk/cars/Hillclimb... are all the ones i managed to get of you.

Was definitely interesting with the bikes. The sidecar was interesting, the passenger looks like he is almost sat on the floor in one picture.
