In amongst all this the riders are usually wandering about goingto dinner, except come Saturday night when they are all business!! Sunday night is great after the race when everyone gets to wind down, before leaving Monday morning for the airport to fly off to teh next race..

The camping can get a tad wet there as it rains lots at The Island!! But everyone has a great time at the camp grounds.
yes its been a bit of a dream of mine, when i go i will have to stay for a few weeks as it will be once in a lifetime !,

even the most ordinary among us are quite extraordinary.

If you go and you're lucky enough that the malaysan race is just a week or so apart, you should do that one too!


Vale, Numero Uno!!

Yes I have & the best place to find him is on the auction stage at the Day of Champions!
You can try waiting outside his pit garage, hopefully he'll give an appearance for the crowds of fans waiting there for him. After last year I doubt anyone will be allowed near the motor-homes, so I suspect that option is out of the question now.

BTW welcome to the forum Sandy2000. So where are you from?

Paddock passes are like gold dust! You can bid for some at the Riders for Health website. ( www.riders.org ) there is a link to take you to the online auction for a pair of paddock passes for each of the races held this year. If you are the highest bidder then you get the tickets!

I wish I knew how to get my hands on paddock passes / pit passes for Donington by any other means than by bidding for them through Riders, but sadly I don't....if I did I'd use the tickets myself....it would save me spending a small fortune bidding on the tickets Riders are selling, that's if I get them. I probably won't be the highest bidder, some people have more money than sense to splash out on getting the passes. & it's a lot more than I can afford that's for sure, but if I didn't bid & they went for a lower price than I'd anticipated I'd kick myself.

Anyone going to Phillip Island this year and has a spare room for 2 girls!!

My cousin and her friend would like to go but haven't got accomodation. They have their own transport.

They will share costs. They would be there from Thursday afternoon till Monday morning.

Thanks
Maree
