Got an email from Bikers Classic and it reads..
Bikers' Days
Spa-Francorchamps in the opposite sense !
As from now, motorcycles will ride counter-clockwise on the track of Spa.
Motorcycles coming down from the Raidillon and working their way up to the Source, diving into the Stavelot instead of climbing the Combes… For several years, DG Sport, organiser of the Bikers’ Days and the Bikers’ School as well as all motorcycle competition on the track of Spa-Francorchamps, has been studying this possibility.
This change of direction would improve the safety of the riders but it would also allow obtaining the homologation of the track for the organisation of a MOTO GP.
It’s not the first time that an initiative like this takes place, it has already been applied successfully a few years ago by the persons in charge of the track of Misano.
After several meetings with politicians, engineers and safety commissioners, it has been decided to apply this formula at Spa-Francorchamps as from the 2012 season.
This is Blasphemy and ex racers will be turning in their graves.. :bawling:
