I'm booked.
I had a free Euro day from Kev on the loyalty scheme and a offer of a upgrade for my recent birthday.

They don't often run 4 days there these days although it was the norm up to 2009.
Should get at least 2 days of good sunshine.

The hotel is pretty nice.
It's about 2 minutes drive from the paddock.

I met Terry you know Pete. The nutter, Forces guy who was on the K3 with his mate. He's instructing for Phil Bevan and racing with North Gloucester.

The more I see of this thread the more tempted I am to take the plunge.
Likelyhood of rain is
Any need to take wets

Post 18 by CEREC1,

Take wets. It does rain in April.

I will help you change wheels and then go back to sleep in my Factory KTM chair.

I guess the surface is pretty grippy when its wet as the MotoGP guys cope.
Hope the rain is warm

Post 20 by CEREC1,

Sure is tempting

I'm going to have to wait a couple of weeks on this one. I can see it selling out but fingers crossed it doesn't and I have a busy couple of weeks.

No, sorry.

I arrive in Jerez Friday night. I leave Weds night, the day after we finish on track.

I think if you want to leave Tues night, you'll have to go down to Malaga - there should be plenty of flights.

I always used to fly out straight from the last afternoon.
However, the Jerez service doesn't run every day now AND they have changed the times of the Seville service so that the flight leaves Seville in the afternoon rather than late evening.

Post 28 by CEREC1,

Malaga is the best deal price and times. Arrives late Friday night which is ok. Departs 17.50 Tuesday evening which should be ok. If FE still have places by tomorrow looks like we might be on for it. Just got the issue of getting the bikes to the pick up. Bristol is not exactly ideal for either pick up

Post 29 by Ducati Pete,

#29
That sounds good, you'd just have to pack up a bit early on the last day.

I appreciate the travel issues for the drop. It works out OK for me, which is one reason I've always used FE in the main.

Almeria was very good. Their handling of Ronin's situation was not good at all. And Kev lying blatantly on TDR thread about it was bang out of order. Although on the trip he was very helpful. I would def do another Euro trip with them.

Post 39 by Ducati Pete,

Any takers?

If someone else isn't there I will claim to have broken the lap record and add a very annoying boast in my sig.

You can't let that happen!

I really didn't spark.

Hussled the old girl 'round to a 2 min 6 on the last day, best on a sd there is late 2 min 2.
I must admit, there were times I rolled out of the garage because I felt oblidged to do so.

Best circuit in the world, nice weather - proof I'm not that interested anymore.

Sad your not feeling the love Pete. Be great to see you at Crashfest, social side is still fun even if your not feeling the bike love.

Post 51 by Ducati Pete,

For sure it's a good chance to hang out with some great guys.
It would also be a chance to meet Stalker.

Sounds like a mid life crisis. Time to get a V4 Tuono and change your sig to Aprilia Pete.
