I wasn't 100% happy about leaving the bike parked outside the premier inn so I've booked up at a B&B just under a mile from the circuit. They have plenty of bikers that stay there for track days, they have decent parking for bikes and will also do breakfast early for people on trackdays (rock)

I booked novice, I'd be a rolling road block in any other group.

I'm really looking forward to the day, want to spend a session working on body position as I don't really move on the bike.
