When I first decided to go to Olivers Mount, my plan was to pack light - load a few bits on my bike and stick a few quid in my back pocket and spend a couple of days enjoying the racing. How things change over the course of a week - there are now 6 of us in my wifes people carrier (I dont even get to drive my own car!) and its stuffed to the roof with tents, sleeping bags, duvets, air beds etc etc... Most importantly - I have beer and a BBQ! Looking forward to a great weekend.

If anyone else fancys a bit of scran before the off me an rob are gonna get the McDonalds early (About half 9) See ya's all shortly, off to load the bike like a pack mule now

That was a beast of a weekend although the ride home was a ball ache (literally!) how long did it take everyone to get home?
We didn't get home till about 8:30 - the drive home was a fooking nightmare! Anyhow - were back now and had a top weekend, so not letting the drive home spoil it.
Great weekend . True the drive home was a nit if a bore but well worth it chaps I'll be putting my pictures on facebook soon and some videos on youtude from the weekend . Awesome time chilling out
I managed to meet guy martin which is something I really wanted to do! I got some helmet stickers from him and got him to sign my 'go big or go home' shirt - that in itself made the weekend well worth while! Everything else was a very excellent bonus :thumbsup:
