Can't wait for the motorcycle race season to start again...
Hoping to get to Austrian MotoGP if you fancy meeting up?Can't wait for the motorcycle race season to start again...
Are you going for the full weekend or only race day?Hoping to get to Austrian MotoGP if you fancy meeting up?
Arrive late afternoon Friday and leave Monday (camping at the Redbull Ring). Due to work commitments I have two big days to get there but after that it is time to relax. After the race weekend the plan has not been confirmed yet but I hope to find a camp site in either West Austria or Northern Italy and use that for a base for 4 days, riding some of the big mountains each day (320-440km per day, nice and relaxed, stopping and taking in the scenery and cultures). Then make my way home.Are you going for the full weekend or only race day?
Watch out in Austria for speeding tickets or other violations, expensive penalties. If it is a serious violation they even confiscate your motorcycleArrive late afternoon Friday and leave Monday (camping at the Redbull Ring).

Thank you. Lets just say I am already familiar with the local traffic officers in Austria. But thanks for the reminder! š¤£Watch out in Austria for speeding tickets or other violations, expensive penalties. If it is a serious violation they even confiscate your motorcycle

Expropriation of the vehicle soon looms in Austria
After already the fines for too fast driving were drastically increased, in Austria threatens in the future also the expropriation of the vehicle. The motorcycle could be confiscated and auctionedmotorcycles.news
Looks like fun, driving thisš .Those wide arches š¤©š
The Ducati Cup š
Bastia will do that š . And what about the Aprillia bikes, I hope they make a big progress like they did last year. It will be a Ducati year for sure, Honda and Yamaha will be in trouble I think.I hope Basta gives Pecco a good run for his money, I also hope Honda give Marc a semi-decent bike (thats all he will need) and I feel sorry for the Yamaha ridersā¦..they will be nowhere this year!
I think the Aprilia is the only contender to the Ducatiās BUT not with their current pilots. I like Aleixās energy but he makes so many rookie mistakes - and he certainly is not a rookie any more. Maverick will be lightening quick in qualifying and then nowhere for the rest of the weekend, I hope I am wrong but I am tired of hoping for himā¦ā¦I donāt think he will finish inside the top 5 for the rest of his MotoGP career (sad as that is).Bastia will do that š .

Mighty Spa! That track is on my bucket list. And riding the Ardennes would be sauce for the goose.So true! Bring back those grid girls! š¤£
My daughter loves F1 and so I take her to Spa Franchorchamps circuit for a couple of years now to watch the practice and race. It is nice to be there but not that nice as going to a MotoGP race or a WSBK race...
