New fan experiences subforum! - TheYellowCommunity.com - Valentino Rossi

We've got a lot of threads about people going to different races, so we thought they'd be easier to find in a separate forum!

So any questions about going to a GP or plans to meet up, or plans to make things for the races etc, please put them here. Also, if people want to blog here about their experiences at any of the races that would be really cool too

.

So that this subforum doesn't get too cluttered, please can we keep one thread only for each separate event

.

Oh and most importantly, have a totally fantastic time if you're going to see Vale this year

.

At Assen, I recommend the Winterdijk tribune.
If you want to see good overtaking maneuvres, that's the place to be.

I think that the idyllic place at Assen are the paddock where you can see the start and the finish and the pits!!

for those who are in the privilidged posistion to travel to other countries

Le mans is a great experience espescially if you camp ,

free bands and stunt shows and great racing (when the yam doesn't break down) ive been 3 times and will defo go back , assen again is awesome went last year and going again this year , assen town festival on fri nite is a must

both these tracks get you much closer to the track than dear old donington ! and the campsite partying is much better !make the pilgrimage you wont be disappointed

well i will be at donington again,firstly for the day of champions then back again on the sunday for the race its self.due to circumstance i cant go for the whole 3 days,which id love to but may be next year (if vale is still riding of course).

if you are thinking of taking a trip to donington then the day of champions is a fantastic day out.the entry is ticket only and its a all access areas day.you can see what goes on at a moto gp weekend.i managed to get lots of brilliant photos of many riders and there bikes,didnt manage to get a pic of vale himself but i got plenty of pic of the bike my avatar pic is just one of many.

if you can get to the day then go as you wont be disappointed

Yes everyone who can get along to the day of champions and take lots of money with you, the auction is amazing and you won't be able to help yourself from bidding for some of the wonderful items the riders donate for the charity.
You'll get lots of chances of photo opportunities with MotoGP riders and even autographs from them too.....if you manage to search out Valentino for a quick photo opportunity or autograph you'll be very lucky indeed....the poor guy is hounded everywhere he goes by hundreds of fans and so keeps a very low profile (I don't blame him either) yet I am still lucky enough to either publicly meet him or have a private meeting with him. (& freeze like an idiot each & every time I do too!!!

Oh apecar, your not alone, i will be going to donington too, both for the day of champions and the race on sunday, we were going to stay, but friends are coming now too and accomodation is very hard to find.Never mind, wil still have fun.........i am also lucky enough to be going to brno and misano.

having never been to a motogp race before, to be doing three this year, well i'm really really excited....and to be meeting up with sooooooo many members i can't wait!!!!

Have great fun everyone, and look forward to reading your happy time!!

I was thinking of going to Doni this year, coz so much of you are from UK and it'd be great to meet up.BUT unfortunatly it way too expensive!

So I'm doing Mugello, Brno, Misano and Valencia this year.I've been to all except Misano lat year and had a blast at each one. For a Vale fan the most amazing IMO is Mugello-people there are just mad (I mean that in a good way

). On the other hand I probably had the most fun in Valencia, mostly due to the fact I met up with a few other yellows (the race itself was a different story altogether

).
So looking forward meeting everybody who will be at these races

wow brubi, you really are addicted.

It's a shame we won't be seeing you at donington,

but i am really pleased to know your at brno AND misano.

I have heard that mugello is a blast, but rally wanted to go to misano this year, maybe mugello can wait till next year.
