I got there a bit early, to have a chance to give the course a bit of a look see. The weather held out for most of the day and there was a decent amount of people turning up :), Scott redding was there with niall and taylor mackenzie, jonh reynolds and steve parrish, all riding the celeb bikes. When they started the moto gp bike up , my fillings nearly fell out ;D . I had two good runs, although the second was a little damp and the rear got a bit squirrely, so it was time to back off a bit ;) hopefully the weather will be a bit better next year and we could have a rideout there for the day :)

I went and it was a good event and well supprted by the number of visiters and stalls. Only one big downside which needs sorting for next year is the car parking, which was on a steep slope, so if you were parked behind anybody chances were you would have to wait until they had gone as it was proving very difficlut to reverse up the hill on long uncut grass.
