Bristol to Llandow June 2024

Post by MikeZ »

At least 2 of us are riding from Bristol to Llandow and back for the trackday on 28th June 2024 and there appears to be interest from others let's start a list.

On the morning will be leaving north Bristol sometime between 07.30-07.45 which will leave plenty of time. Will stop for refuel close to Llandow.

Just copy and add your name if interested. Full details closer to the date.

For those of us that are riding from Bristol to Llandow and back thought I would put up a list of what I'm taking to avoid needlessly doubling up on kit.
1/4" socket set up to 14mm. Various (ktm sizes) torx bits. 32mm socket. 1/2" breaker bar. 1/4>3/8>1/2" adaptors. 10, 13, 14mm open enders. Foot pump & tyre pressure gauge, Gaffer tape, swan neck pliers, tyre plugs.
If I need other stuff then there's a proper go home problem.
Fyi will also be taking my fold up chair & brolly to cover rain or shine.

There will be a load of us going up in vans with comprehensive tool kits. Don't struggleto bring a load of tools, bring anything that's particularly unique to your bike, other than that don't worry as there will be plenty there.

The key one out of that list was Tyre pressure gauge and foot pump. You will need to drop tyre pressures when on track but need to pump them back up again for the ride home. If all goes to plan and the bikes are well serviced then should not need any mechanical work just fuel and a fun day.

Just in case anybody else considering riding over with the 3 of us on Friday.
Plan is to meet at the M49-M4 Redwick roundabout at 07.20
In the unlikely event that the M48 is quicker on the day plan will be switched to Aust roundabout.
There will be a fuel stop at the BP at J33 M4.
If you wish to join us for the ride over just let one of us know and we'll add you to the WhatsApp group we've created just for this trip.
