I went on a trip with Farside to Val de Vienne in France in '02 and absoloutely loved it. The team try to make it a really friendly atmosphere and bend over backwards to make sure everyone is comfortable and having a good time. They're less like the 'money grabbing track day organisers' you find in the UK and more like some mates who've organised the trip for you. The numbers were small enough that I got to know most people's names and could have a real chat and also it meant that the track was practially empty. Be warned : The standard of riding is quite high - the guys on the tour I joined were pretty fast - it's more of a 'fast and faster' group on the track! Having said that there was never any pressure to go quick and the sheer emptyness of the track and the number of more experienced riders to quiz would make it ideal for someone who'd never been on a track before - in fact one of the newbies in the group wasn't sure he even wanted to go out, but after some encouragement and a day of practice was absoloutely flying by the end! Virtually unlimited track time and an 'open pit' means that you can come in when you're tired and go back out when you're ready - no need to conform to sessions. In summary : The trip organisation (ferries / accomodation / maps / etc) was great - no-one got lost. The track day was the best organised and most enjoyable I've ever done and the team were faultlessly friendly and helpful. Can't wait to go away with them again. - Scott.
