Donnington World Superbikes 2-3rd May
This event is a very good event to get the squadron in the public eye, cadets were tasked with bike parking and collecting rider's helmets, for 'Honda UK Riders Club'.
At this event cadets stay in tents on Saturday night, on the evening we have fish 'n' chips for our tea and spend the night in the exhibition centre, where there was a live band playing called the 'Po Boys', the drummer for the band is Jamie Whitham. Jamie is a superbike rider, for Suzuki.
On the Sunday morning we got up at the crack of dawn and we had our breakfast and we were on the field for 08:00hr to park motorbikes and collect helmets. During the day on Sunday we were able to watch the 2 World Superbike races where Carl Fogerty, who was on a Ducati, won the 1st race and Colin Edwards, who was on a Honda, won the 2nd race. Between the two races there were other motorbike events such as the Super Sport Bikes which are 600cc motorbikes.
After the day on Sunday we were told be Honda Representatives that the cadets had done an extremely good job and they were so impressed with us that they have invited us, if we are able to attend, all other Honda events at different race tracks throughout the country for the remainder of the year and coming years free of charge.
This is obviously something that we are looking at closely.
