Rally Swaffham Shindig (formally the Thetford Bash )

[barsteward]

Left is really right is the way I always ride mate, living life on the edge, way to go….till I fall off that is!

And I've done that, more than once.

Counter steering technique?

 

[barsteward]

Counter steering technique?

No! blind panic.

For those that haven't been before you are advised to turn left into rugby club and not turn in right (coming from town) due to slope of entrance and the road you are turning off.
I was one of many that started playing O's and X's on the tarmac outside.

 

[Lisa]

I think we’ll unhitch the toad as well as come in from the left

Coming from town - where can you turn around so as to approach & turn left into the club?

Looks like there is an electric sub station about 0.3miles on right with a wide entrance.

This is the entrance to Dugdale Lane David ... probably not advisable!

 

[DuxDeluxe]

Any Google street view of where the sub station is? Cannot seem to find it. TIA

 

[Ukbandit]

It’s just down the road from the rugby club, just past Dulgaye Lane.

 

[Lisa]

There is a turning on the left called Hillside that is just past the club. Looks wide enough to do a sweep and short reverse….. as long as we don’t have a convoy behind us.

I think I'll just put another 10 psi in the suspension and just turn right! (Yet another advantage of a whoosh-bang.)

 

[Nanniemate]

My whoosh bang went in and out no proble and its seems to a be a lot lower than the newer ones and has little wheels

 

[Lisa]

Cause it was a “man look”

 

[Nanniemate]

Is that the same as 'looking with your eyes closed'

It's no problem as long as you don't take it at 90mph, think the damage was done lastime when everyone was rushing to be first

I went by Rob’s @Kannon Fodda’s misinformation

and lets face it, if you can do it..........only joking!

PS. Last year I arrived late and saw the marks on the road so I went in on an angle without problems (just like you showed me at Quackers)
