I can't stop staring at it, everything is just so right - stance, chop, rims, tyres, colour, scale, poise, balance... perfection. Swoon...

Passes are sold out. :(
But there is Free Spectating... :bounce:

Outside of the pits it’s free to come and spectate. The view of the race cars is fantastic and you you can wander down the beach to see the cars at speed. There is a fee of £3 per car payable on the day which will allow you to park on the hallowed beach in your car. No pre-booking is required, you do not need to be a member and there is no limit on numbers. This will not permit you to enter the pit or race areas, nor will you have access to the after race party.

I visited without a pass. It's fine, plenty to see without needing to be in the pits.

Quite a few of the Pendine racers come to the hillclimbs I run at and are driven really hard and seem a good bunch of people.
A run to the Sands sounds a good idea.
See what Mrs Hillclimber says.

An extra couple of days after in Wales sound good.
