Is there any restriction on the type of bike allowed? IE are full race bikes kosher? I only ask as i know some smaller circuits and some outside events not on race tracks sometimes dont allow race bikes.
If not I'm pretty sure I'll be there. sounds like a good time!

I'm probably going to be booking this after the 20th if there is still places left as I'm a wee bit strapped for cash at the minute.
Thanks for keeping me update ngneer.
