Re: Newbie!
Welcome in newbie tell us more about your bike and track adventures. As a fellow Celt (west wales division) i recently ventured across the boarder to a far away place called cadwell park im happy to report that the natives seemed a lot friendlier than in days gone by and even befriended a couple.

Re: Newbie!
Have you done Portugal before ? the wife says that last bend IN to the stat finish straight is interesting when you loose sight of where the track is due to the slight humpWaldo79 wrote: Sat Jul 06, 2019 2:08 pm Cheers lads bike is a 2011 r1 big bang; do a few trackdays a year done knockhill and Cadwell this year got portimao booked for October;

From what I've read on here Portimao is not for the faint hearted with a fair few twist , turns and height changes , the wife was told to get on the last bend and just pin it

I even bought a PS3 game so she could get an idea of the track but she was sh!t on the PS3
YouTube might be a good idea , hope you enjoy it as much as she did
