You definitely have a point mate.

Did sessions once at Combe and vowed never again :D

Our last chat got me thinking on this :cheers

sessions at combe are usually 4 per hour, so 15 minutes, i agree thats pretty sh*t, but 40 minutes per hour would be plenty i think. This only works if we can get enough cars and bikes to fill it. Its easier to ship bikes to spain than it is cars :)

Brilliant roads, driving and company, still in my prime, several get out of jail free cards, and only broke down on the final day in time for the AA to transport me home in luxury. Towing Robin up and down a mountain with a jump lead at night with John as lead scout will never be repeated.

I think the transport cost was around £1200 (nearest pickup Donington)...

My mistake, it was around 1400...

We could even do a joint event with cars and bikes. 40 minute session for cars, 20 minute session for bikes per hour.

I could be tempted to bike it... :thumbsup

Hi guys, interesting tread this is! :thumbsup
Most epic experiences starts with a (day)dream.

Logistically, the truck would probably not be an option for me, but wouldn't mind driving down.

I'll be following this tread. :cheers

Not having experienced any of the previous Spanish trips I would love to do something like this - Especially this year if there is not going to be any French Frolic taking place :(

I would be with Dominique & Robin & just drive it - For me Ledenon last year on Frolic was awesome so if it was possible to link a day there again with 1 or 2 tracks in Spain, some mountain runs then I'd be well up for that & happy as :P
