Perfectly normal.

I bet you even loose a little bit of wee or poo when in the starting area getting ready to go. :))

Have you noticed that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster is a maniac ?

Indeedy doo.

Have to say the -3 and fog at the start put me off a bit but it all came good in the end.

Once various heros had finished throwing bikes at the scenery the rest of us could have some fun. It took a few sessions and some learning but by my Last session I was having fun and linking turns.

It's a fast track with a technical section that will make you dizzy.

Will certainly go back.

If you have been to Bedford before and were put off by a couple of issues like the electric and catering they have improved things for the better !!!!

I took a genny because I was warned about the electric, but they were really strict with noise issues,even waving signs at you coming down the back straight telling you to split up :80: was that still happening ?

Noise was a strict 101db and we were all tested etc they said there was a drive by meter somewhere I think it was on the back straight ?? So we were warned to either if in a group short shift or spread out all track now have noise issues which is a real bummer
Electricity was an issue but was very quickly sorted out they had a massive generator which we could all use it was the size of a car !!!! They then supplied leads and 110v adaptors
