Not impossible, but at 600 quid and potentially already going on another trip in March, not particularly likely.

European track jaunts are a bit out of my league at present. Think I would prefer to concentrate on UK venues with the vfr in 2014, but a session somewhere like Spain next winter isn't completely out of the question

[natdereuck]

I have just come back from a trip with Farside Sportsbiking where we spent two days on Track at Albacete Spain. It was my first proper track day and unlike most others on the trip only had my road bike DuNati! Having said that although most everyone else there where serious track dayers they really looked out for me and by day two thanks to the generosity of everyone DuNati and I where whizzing around the track.

Farside promote safety first and foremost and in the two days we only had one major tumble which is a far cry from other track days I have done when a lot of time is wasted because of accidents.

I was so impressed with the organisation, quality of riding and care and consideration of all the riders that I can't wait to go again next year.

[steeevvvooo]

Got to see how the new bike handles eh :mand:

[pegboy]

Ok change of plans for just booked Valencia with no limits in May 2014. However they have Aragon before also which is tempting.

[steeevvvooo]

Got to see how the new bike handles eh :mand:

Would be on the 749 anyway mate as I have to put some miles on her somehow! :)

[jonzi]

I think the consensus is to go back to Cartagena again.

I would like to go else where, but my laptimer said that my optimum lap could be a 1:50. so going back and getting that would be good too.

Decisions decisions

ballicks Mary, you can't even tie your shoelaces that fast ;-)

[J.P]

11-13 April – Portimao £479 early booking (ends 15/12)
3 nights accom/3 days on track/bike transport

Funkatronic did that track.

[pegboy]

Portimao is awesome, nearly every corner is blind, elevation changes, long straight great track great fun

I have booked Valencia in May with No Limits, May 5,6,7

[Funkatronic]

portimao is truely awesome, early april can be very wet though (but equally i have been therer in march and its its 30 degrees!!) , the may one is better option imho

based on recent visit its very bumpy these days and needs resurfacing (hence why its a lot cheaper than it used to be)

valencia & brno i'm likely to do for sure (although might do brno with a german trackday firm called Acton Bike)

never done misano and it looks very tempting, never done lemans either and thats not too pricey and drivable from uk

[Funkatronic]

pacedazy are doing nights are cartagena in June, that could be fun ;-)

[jonzi]

I might book the Aragon / Valencia trip with NL.

3 days in each with a days break. Hopefully nothing will break, on me or the bike.

[Funkatronic]

you know it makes sense :-)

how did you get on with the trumpet?

[jonzi]

It was awesome!

Need to sort the gearing out. Getting up to only 4th on the main straight at Cartagena.

The day with Crafer made a lot of difference too. And now I just need to stay on the gas later and let go of the brakes sooner.

How hard can it all be?

Are you going to to the Aragon / Valencia trip?

[jonzi]

Aragon and Valencia booked.

[Funkatronic]

likewise :-)

[pegboy]

Oh lovely jubbly. Will seriously have to look at Aragon then. Might ship out the monster for a little tour inbetween?? Big ask will have to test the water with the wife first, carefully

[slob]

Just requested 30th April to 8th May off, will book with NL as soon as work okay it.

[jonzi]

Fricking awesome.

[slob]

deposit on both in nov/int

[jonzi]

Fricking awesome.

[slob]

trying to bankrupt me huh?

[jonzi]

They are half price, also means you can go out and pin it from the pits, and it makes one look more stylish in the garages (most important part)

[Funkatronic]

only 1 day between events pegboy so not much to tour (unless you want to do a bit b4 hand)

yay--6 days out of 7 on track, better get in training or its gonna hurt guys ;-)

[Funkatronic]

just booked mugello with FE in august too :-)

[slob]

saving myself there, Max is going to try and sort us out with a low budget Italian trackday near WDW

[Funkatronic]

ooh fun :-)

[pegboy]

Yeah realised that after I posted that only one day I between. Oh well might have to be nice over Christmas and see if I can get away with 6 in 7 days?

[steeevvvooo]

Valencia is fully booked :thumbsdown:

Where should I be looking next guys? Le mans is cheap, and rideable...

Maybe Aragon early May?

[jonzi]

...Maybe Aragon early May?

That's the one that Rob, me and Ali are booked in to.

Do it.

[pegboy]

Right going to work on the missus to give the green light for Aragon also, and do Aragon then Valencia, however I am all booked up for Valencia flights and car hire etc, sometimes being to organised for my own good. So the drive from Valencia to Aragon is three hours so I can just change the outbound flight??? She has brought Valencia as a present so If I buy Aragon I still only pay for one euro track day a year. Well that's my reasoning. Watch this space.

Uh huh

SleasyJet (http://www.easyjet.com/en/fees-and-charges) charge £35 to change the flight.

[pegboy]

Haha, hair might be gone but definitely not. Ryan air flights £50 to alicante can change car hire job done. Right where do I book?????

[steeevvvooo]

I'm considering Le Mans in late August of early sept. Two days for £259 but would need to ride over and get a B&b.

Trying to rope a mate into it but anyone here fancy it as well?

[jonzi]

Any one going to Almeria in mid march with FE?

I am very tempted to book it.
