You will get wet in the Eiffel region at some point. I've been a few times now and got soaked every time :lol
As Cabletie said it's a real buzz just visiting the car park! I've visited the ring around 4 or 5 times but done only two laps. Theres usually one or two in the group who want to do a lap and 1 or 2 just happy to be there
Everyone should do at least one lap as it is an amazing experience. If you are not a racer, like me, treat it as a fast country road knowing theres nothing coming the other way and no speed cameras. Just keep a wee eye in your mirrors for (much) faster traffic and keep to the right to allow it to pass. But when lining up for a bend it's your road so concentrate and feck everyone else.
Me, I always wear 2 piece gear, leathers or textiles depending on general long range forecasts!
