OCUK Rolling Road Meet 4 - Bolt on Goodies - Official Sign Up Thread

[Freefaller]

Get a new one and make an excuse to do 500 miles before 1st july.

That's kinda what I'm thinking But I also wanna go out on my bike

A rolling road isn't hard on the clutch, your bringing the power in smoothly and then accelerating with the clutch fully in.

No issue with fast gear changes/ clutch slip/ overheating/glazing anyway

Great! Thanks for the info... As I said once it's moving it's fine and doesn't slip much, just the inital launches it doesn't really like

I was thinking about this trip today so much so that i signed up for some break down cover just in case

Other thing that crossed my mind was the fact that i havent booked any accomodation yet. I take everyone who is aiming to be there on the Friday and doing the night out thing is staying at a Travel Lodge ?

Has anyone booked their accomodation for this yet as i don't want to be stuck with no where to sleep ?

 

[The_One]

Are there any spaces?

If so i would like to get my IbizaCupra on the rollers

 

[L0rdMike]

Im sure there will be, half the people on the list wont turn up.

 

[The_One]

In that case can i be added to the list please??

The_0ne Ibiza Cupra YES

How true

I've firmly decided, I'm going at a steady pace down there this time. I think thats the plan, but I'm doing my own thing.

I got there last time and my head was spinning.

 

[paradigm]

Does that mean you are, or aren't convoying?

 

[thebrasso]

I'll convoy, just I'll do a steady 70-80 all the way there...

I just find driving fast much more tiring.

 

[paradigm]

I find staying on the road for longer more tiring, go faster = get there quicker

However I will be doing about 75MPH indicated as that way I might see the right side of 35MPG

 

[Freefaller]

I drive at a max of 70 anyway purely for fuel consumption!

 

[Simon]

Can I bring two cars please?

 

[Conanius]

Can I bring two cars please?

theres always one who wants to be clever

Please see first post (ina bout 5 mins) for payment info

Last year I actually offered my car to Ian for a meet but he declined the offer.

Was a shame as I would have loved to take 2 of my cars along.

The way you were talking, I thought you meant you were going to do 50 all the way there.

I won't be doing much over 70mph myself. If I'd have gone straight from my house to Combe, I'd have done it in around 2 and a half hours at 60mph.

 

[Wayn0r]

Noooo, why, whats up

problem, being a lack of licence due to the gay totting up rubbish and the fact i got 3 points on my scooter which were due to be wiped less than 3 weeks from when i got radar'd.

Might have it back by the date, hopefully :/

Ballcakes.
I invited my dad to come over to see the races as a Fathers day present and he's just told me that he's booked the weekend 30th June - 2nd July. Instead of the RR it looks like I'll be at the horsey racing.

Sorry

 

[paradigm]

Damnit

One of the members I hadn't met that I was looking forward to meeting. Ah well, have fun with the horsies.
