As there is no SWB Llandow for next year, where are we going to invade en mass?

Post by Tvrv37 »

So if no Llandow, what trackday are we turning into our home event?I know you're not a fan of Castle Combe but it's central to the forum.
Honda CB1000 GT (on order), Honda CB1000r, Aprilia Tuono V4R for the track, Yamaha RD250E,

I’m not a fan of Castle Coombe
Track favourites would be
Oulton Park
Donington
Cadwell

But as a more simple track, flat, cheap etc then Bedford maybe could be an option.

Track days they do loads throughout the year but I struggle on bike hire as yes that’s normally only once a year. But might be a good test for me getting back used to doing my own paddock / Pitt work in readiness for Portugal.

A quick Google search on Bedford Autodrome trackdays produced the MSV site. The info' they give makes it look o.k.to me; it's 2.8 miles and anti-clockwise with no Armco or gravel traps they (MSV) say. I can't find any 2022 dates online.
Here's MSV's Bedford website: https://bike.msvtrackdays.com/Circuits/ ... -Autodrome

Google maps give B.A. as 218 miles from Exeter M5 services https://www.google.co.uk/maps/dir/M5+Se ... 39!3e0!5i1

I'd be interested, but maybe not next year.. I dunno.
It's a bit far to do in one day, and 'over-nighters' are challenging right now, but I do want to try a track that is larger than Llandow.
