Oulton 4th August

Post by Mike Scib » Thu Jun 03, 2010 11:17 am

Anyone else up for Oulton on Wednesday the 4th of August with EasyTrack?

I have booked up with Corbie and Simon82 and plan to return home on either the Wednesday night or Thursday morning (heading down on the Tuesday) in time for the AMP3 charity track day. Corbie and Simon are however booked onto Anglesey on the Friday if anyone wishes to stay down.

:cheers

Corbie mentioned it. Sounds like a good combi although for some reason Anglesey has never really interested me that much, don't know why. :? I'm on Holiday in August though so will probably need to keep funds for that. :(
