Welcome Race Fans!!!
Two times World Champion James Toseland has returned this year to WSB to reclaim his world title after two seasons in MotoGP, and joining him are six other British riders:
• Leon Camier
• Cal Crutchlow
• Jonathan Rea
• Tom Sykes
• Shane Byrne
• Leon Haslam
What better time to come join us in Portugal and cheer on the Brits. We will be heading down to Portimão Friday 26th/Saturday 27th March, our timings are flexible to suit your travel plans. Ride time approx 4½hrs so why not come and join us for a few days before or after the race!! Figueira da Foz is the perfect place to stop and break up the ride from Santander/Bilbao (approx 8hrs ride) or Calais!! The Paintshop Hostel and Bar is well-equipped for a few beers or to hit the town, which has awesome nightlife and Casino. If that's not your style, chill out in the hostel, play pool, relax or watch the latest WSB practice sessions on Sky TV.
On arrival in the Algarve we will be staying at
Turiscampo (www.turiscampo.com) which is located 15mins from the
circuit (www.autodromoalgarve.com.pt). Turiscampo has accommodation in Bungalows or Camping, which you can book directly and has excellent facilities. Here we will be meeting up with Andy, better known to his friends as "Fat Jesus", and a legend to anyone who goes to the MotoGP rounds (particularly Assen!!) We will also team up with members of the Algarve bikers, so a good time will be on the cards for sure!!!
Our plan is to head back to the Paintshop Hostel after the racing on Sunday, hopefully with a Brit leading the points!!! You are welcome to ride back with us and spend the night at the hostel to rest your tired heads, party again, or stay longer - the choice is yours!!!
There is no charge from the Paintshop for the tour/ride only the price of the hostel bed, which is 18 Euros for a dorm bed per night!! Your camping fees and WSB tickets will be paid for by yourselves using the recommended weblinks above!!
