£12 . Kids go free as long as they're with an adult.

Forecast for Croft tomorrow is mostly cloudy. We should get a dry day up until 5pm or so smile

Fairly quiet on the Plod front today apart from a battenburg off road bike on the way out tonight but it'll be crawling with them tomorrow. Expect Speed traps & ANPR.

DVLA were there today too doing road tax checks. smile

I went for the qualifying on Saturday, ended up with sunburn, a Stobart fleece and a big smile on my face. Been to MotoGP race days before and didn't enjoy the crowds. It was great to be able to wander round and see some famous faces. Recognised quite a few people wandering round, including :

Rob Mac & Niall Mackenzie having a chat with Tommy Hill, John McGuinness in the back of the pits, Jane Omorogbe (lovely bum!!), James Haydon, Jamie Whitham and Jack Burnicle all wandering round watching the action, Riyuichi Kiyonari, Chris Walker and Cal Crutchlow signing posters at a Rizla stand, next to Gregorio Lavilla being ignored by the queue. If I collected autographs, I could have filled a book. I bet they aren't this accessible on race day!

No queues to get in either. Winner!

On a street you might expect it ! But at an event like that where everyone is into the same thing and all those bikes parked up you might expect something of there`s first. I suppose not as if your car stood out inamong the 0000`s of other cars wink
