well two of them cruz'ed, well more slithered over there. (I know sic)
Its been long known that you can get into Santa Pod for free, they cant, and dont seem to want to stop you. Known but not tested untill today.
The Cruz twins BigRing and me played on some firm yet slimy tracks on our way over there from Stanwick lakes before hitting Northants version of the Somme, the three shires way. (its no wonder anyone who lives in this area thinks there is no decent trails in Northants).
A small battle of balance and line choice later we roll straight into the pits of the Auto Trader Easter Thunderball meeting, and its pretty busy and active with plenty of food and drink and a funfair. Its funny seeing the state of the campsites as we passed, thats going to be a tough weekend for them folk.
(clicky pics for big view)
So as its a bank holiday, we hit the bar to get out of the Arctic wind. Three Guinises and a few rounds of donuts later we watch all of 15 seconds of burning rubber and smoke then its a blast home. (that jet car thing was the Fireforce3...260mph apparently, no wonder it disappeared that quick)
Proper Bike ride.
Its on all weekend if your bored, and its 19 quid to get in if you dont use the muddy backdoor entry. Monster trucks and MotoCross tomorrow !
