Yep, Debz and myself will be marshalling. Anyone going up from London, the KillSpills ride is part of the weekend and needs more bikes to go from London to Donnington. They want 600 but only have 200 so far, it'll cost you £25 but you'll get to do something possitive to stop diesel spills, entry into bikefest, a tenner's worth of petrol and a free breakfast.

26th May ???

Ah yes, I remember now....... That's the day I'll be blasting down the Route Napoleon en-route to Antibes :smt003 :smt003

Guess I'll have to give it a miss.

Well, come on, whose coming?
:smt006

When this was first suggested it seemed everyone wanted to come .... now I'm watching tumbleweed ..... can't believe that nobody's going other than Mr & Mrs Nooj.

If any of us are going to be there, we'll need to arrange meeting up - it's not going to happen by chance in an event like that.

Good for you! If I'm not on the Falco, I'll be on the white Fazer 600. Depends on the weather.

Which will be far more interesting as I loathe coppers like him. :smt005

Looks like Falco weather! I don't expect the neighbours will appreciate the sound of two Aprilias starting up a 6am on Saturday morning. Oh well, never mind. :smt003

Bare in mind, THE track session will be at a walking pace, dunno what else is going on that weekend, got my responsible (boring) Marshal head on, thought it looks like Aprilia will be visible there, hopefully they will be making the effort to be seen again following the recent disappearance from all shows and venues over here recvently.

Yeah - I'm hoping to do the KillSpills crawl and probably one of the 15min track sessions as well.
Mind you, I've booked nothing in advance as I was waiting to see what the weather was doing and whether anyone else was going.
Looking forward to it.

Paddy, you've got my mobile - if anyone else wants it, drop me a pm.

Cheers,
Andy
