Depending on when I could be up for this mate, as long as the residents don't mind my scantily clad carcass shuffling about looking for the cludgie.

May pop up and see you as I am only down the road, done Indy many times on R6 and R1, but never been able to afford GP and that back straights frightens the sh*t out of me :b

I'm up for a track day, I work odd shifts but with plenty of notice can book days off, my only problem is I think Brands is oop north so all those exotic sounding places like Cadwell or Anglesy a probably a couple of days riding?  Ug's offer of camping would be appreciated too?

i think a few of us at cadwell(either on track and or take pics)and camping is a cracking idea,its local ish to me(hour and half)but not to others but your never going to please everyone but maybe a spring one at cadwell and late summer at brands?

Sounds like an awesome plan but maybe for next spring now for me which is a shame. I did a castle coombe one on the fz1 this year which was fun but that circuit is tiny and i would have been just as quick on the fzs600

I have contacted them again this morning about the cost of booking a whole group. It may be necessary to open this up to other owners clubs to fill an entire group.  If the cost is too much I'll try to negotiate a discount.

Cracking idea.  Cadwell is an ace track and pleasant to get to.
As UG said the last time a few of us booked onto a track day we had a great laugh.
Count me in, subject to mending the washing machine and getting my stairs fixed.

I think that's pretty poor of Cadwell to mess you around when they stand to make a few quid. You shouldn't be having to chase them about it! :(

To be fair it's not Cadwells fault, it's Focused Events for not getting bsck to us. Lets see if MSV are any different.
 
We have a bit of time to sort things out.

Focused Events emailed back yesterday asking for my phone number. I've supplied it and await a phone call from them.
They said that many factors govern the price without explaining what. I do know from before that track supplier, time of year, also the day of the week helps the cost to fluctuate.
So hopefully we should have some news on numbers needed approximate cost etc.
