    Me neither. I definitely see the attraction and rush of racing down a mountain but after the first few times I reckon it'd just get boring. And you're bound to bump into people who can't stop boasting about their cars.

    I suspect you mean Bristol, which has improved greatly over the last few years and the new layout of the entrance is better. I regularly use the Silver Zone parking when I'm there. Not sure where you would park a recumbent bike though.
    Oh, with you living in Devon, I thought Exeter, where we fly from, would have been your nearest airport. We've tried Bristol a couple of times but it's nowhere near as pleasant as flying from Exeter (especially over the summer!).

    And BTW you've been very selective there haven't you. How about listing all the posters who've mentioned holidaying in Lanzarote, rather than cherry picking to serve your own snidey agenda. As a moderator, haven't you got anything better to do like banning folks etc.
