The event is staged/hosted in the local comp with ample parking and well sign posted on the day.

As for accommodation you've plenty of options.

Stay at the same place as Twister in Winchcombe.

Travel lodge and premier Inn's right next door to Jnc 9 of M5 (Tewkesbury) and only a few miles down the road form Winchcombe


also
Muz usually stops over so worth tapping him up to see where he stays

Welcome and pleased there will be more RetroBikes in attendance.

Always difficult to decide which bike, advantage of retro...usually have too many and the others have to be left feeling sorry for themselves at home :facepalm: . It is why Mountain Mayhem was so good, different bike each lap.
...anyway it seems the best way of deciding which bike to use is one with "crank bolts which stay in place."!!!!

And needing a 14mm socket to tighten the bastards up isn't helpful!
