No you don't, mate!
Follow the old A4 west from Newbury - it's a fun ride. Rejoin the M4 and then cross the old Severn bridge, the M48, and follow the signs for Chepstow, then enjoy the road up through the Wye Valley to Monmouth. Then turn left and follow the A40 all the way through Abergavenny, Brecon, Llandovery, Llandeilo & Carmarthen, then follow the signs to Llanelli, Pembrey & Burry Port, and the brown signs to the Pembrey motorsports centre...

I've just gotten off the phone to my friend who was racing with GB Moto, good and bad meeting they won but Micks wife Sam Godfery highsided and suffered a triple compound fracture to a leg and she's currently in Carmarthen hospital "with a bloody great hole in her leg" but hoping to be transferred to Worthing today or tomorrow. Can't belive it I'm gutted for her.

Hey Chappers just been reading the thread an remembered that I met the lady you mention with the broken leg a few weeks ago at a small hotel near Snetterton she had a halo metal jiggery pokerie thing on her leg but she was in high spirits I think the team had been at Snet for the endurance racing and were going home the next day we were going on a trackday the next day at Snet so went up the day before. Loveley lady and the whole team were friendly and encouraging. is there any news on her leg is she back riding again yet?
