Yeah ive been there 3 times mate, you'll struggle on the Blade, as your always on the brakes, i did it once on mine and found my wrists hurt after only 3 laps, only used 2nd 3rd gears as well.

Much better track on a 600, i really enjoyed doing it on my 636.
I might pop up and say hello dude, its only 12 miles from my house.

Oh, the Cafes good there and quite cheap

Your brother could also do Anglesey, my mates Son was on track with us in August he's on a restricted license as well, this was with No Limits though, so not sure about other track-day companys mate.

Donington was a complete wash-out, we had freezing rain all day, people were coming off on the warm-up laps most sessions, i was behind one lad on the straight when his bike started fish-tailing, he was bolt upright at the time.

I kept sliding on the brakes, front and back, and sliding coming out of corners with VERY little throttle, so i called it a day by lunch time, i heard Donny was bad in the wet, but this was taking the piss, it was dangerous, and in hindsight should have been cancelled.

I will most definalty go back, as the track looks and feels awesome, but if its wet forget it

Cheers for the info. Not sure what difference a restricted licence makes it's the same test. Sorry to hear about donnington long way to go for a wash out. It's on my to do list next year.
