Might give the Memorial Rideout a go.  :tongue:
12 day trip for the Brno GP in August.
No doubt a few runs round the Scottish Borders and hopefully a few overnights on the SX.  Lakes, Highlands, West coast.

Chrisninja

Atlantic way tour of southern Ireland on the new beast
few shows hopefully
lots of smaller trips with maybe one or two overnighters!

Foo

Memorial run in April
Boarders run in Sept
At least 2 European MotoGP rounds (Valencia booked)
Silverstone MotoGP
I hope to get a few weekends away on the bike in the lakes, boarders, Scotland and anywhere our fancy takes us
Just generally enjoy the new bike and to make the most of that and my licence  :)

1-600-matt

Have done a very wet Cartagena to start the year off!!
Estoril is booked for may.

Hope to:
Get a few trackdays in the uk through the year
Maybe another endurance round or two!
Back on the lanes with the KTM, doing the Wessex wanderer in May for a start
Get the Honda through MOT and back on the road

If I manage that I will be happy.

Have thought about doing the Wanderer myself as it's local but it's also the wife's birthday so discretion is the better part of valour.

i was there too... thankfully the 2nd and 4th days kinda made up for day one... (if only we booked the 3 day event directly after.. 3 days of good weather) .. .first day we didn't get out.. 2nd day was good but my bike ran like sh*t.. day 3 changed spark plugs..bike fixed  :moto: .. day 4 was excellent (how cartagena should be)

aragon in may
portimao in september
alcarras in october
(tempted by folembray august bank holiday, just for the crack)
the 'new' pembrey has got to be worth a weekend away

a few uk trackdays here and there (ie as many as i can get away with)

Saw the new Pembrey from 1000' above the other day - looks great.
Significantly faster than you.....

captain sensible

Show off :tongue:

My plans are to get at least one track day done,  try and make it to the memorial ride and get a project bike to keep me busy.
Now with 100% more sarcasm.

fingers crossed scotland in april, bit 50/50 at the moment
I'll ride up with ya if you do.

P.S. The can has a baffle in it now. :wink:

That's the only thing I have planned so far. I don't really do much, bikewise, in this 'ere Londinium.  :embarrassed:

Phil_8

DGR in September as usual is pretty much the only event thing I have planned

Will also hopefully (but likely not) try and finish the AR project

Ride to work, ride home, ride to work, ride home, repeat about 200 times.

Try not to get to carried away and throw it at the scenery again  :moto:

I was there as well in the garage with Simon Crafar next to Matt.
I booked Simon for tuition as well. Fair play to him he did his upmost to get out and make it worth while.

I've booked Brno in June
Slovakia Ring in September.

Looking to do Snett or Silverstone April/May and one more Euro to finish the year off.
