Looking at this impressive footage of 2 Goldwings toe scraping I was wondering If we have a stretch of road like this here? Would love to practice my cornering on this kind of road. Wiltshire has nothing like this that I'm aware of???

That was amazing to watch a big old bike like that been thrown around like a toy.

Some roads similar to that in Scotland which I rode a few months back on the edge of Lock Lomond, but the surfaces are nowhere near as smooth as the one in the video!

"Onfire",I agree,trackdays are Ideal as far as a safer environment is concerned,It's a shame they were not a lot cheaper that I could afford as on a tight budget with family commitments ! Also I am a slow cruising type of rider, 60 ish max but like slowish sweeping corners so I think I'd be too slow on an actual race track!Thanks for the thought though! ;)
