Thanks for all the replies, much appreciated.
I paid £50 for 2 days (bargain) from one of the "tour companies" who like to book everything for us, but as I won't be using any of them in future for anything I'll need to sort my own bicycles.
I'm booking my own stuff because I don't like the tour companies sites / package holiday / holiday camp set up. I now have everything sorted except bike hire.
I would be much better off bringing a bike. I looked at folding bikes, very cheap on ebay. I even considered building a bike I could bolt together etc.
The issue I've got is space, I'm in an XKR, my mate is in some sporty Lexus. 3 adults and 2 teenagers between the 2 cars. 5 bikes, how do you do it?
Bike hire is the simplest solution. I don't really want to sacrifice the drive down in my boring Passat estate just because I want to get p1ss3d when I eat out on the Mulsanne straight in the evening. Its only a 45 mins walk. However bike would be good for Friday pit lane walkabout and museum, as well as Saturday evening.
I too found bike hire in the town, but it would be a bit of hassle picking them up and dropping them off again.
Bike hire at the circuit ticks all the boxes. I'll be saving so much not using a tour company that I could probably afford to buy new bikes and just dump them :-).

We were at BSJ...I never noticed any bike hire. All i came across was a big security zone inside the entrance.
Is the bike hire normally inside or outside the entrance? I wasn't looking out for it so may have missed it.
I think it's normally on the right just after security.... I think I saw it -but am not certain!Is the bike hire normally inside or outside the entrance? I wasn't looking out for it so may have missed it.
