The clothing is a bit of a bugger, fancied the track session but not sure I want to fork out for a full set of leathers I’ll probably never wear again. Is an ordinary leather bike jacket and leather trousers not ok?
I’ll have to have a peak at fleabay and see if I can get a set of there.

Plenty of cheap sets of leathered on eBay, then just sell them straight after. It's what a couple of lads did for the drag race rally at shakey

If you're thinking of buying leathers, either one or two piece I'd recommend you take a look at
https://www.scrubbersleathers.co.uk/
Used sets are refurbed and Damien's prices are fair, he's given me decent service. You know what you get from him will be good.
One thing I would recommend is that riders wear a full length back protector, neck to coccyx. The ones that come fitted in leathers are usually too short to protect the lower back adequately.

As it is a VMCC event you have to apply and pay for the sessions with VMCC application form.
When the VMCC sort out the track sessions they will see if there are enough Kawasaki Triples to fill a session.

Well Kerry - at least we will be guaranteed track time because we have entered early - even if it's in a mixed group.
Guts - to be guaranteed a place you must enter before the end of January
