So it’s Oulton Park’s turn to host the British Superbike Championship this weekend, the 2-4th May.

For those of you that are unfamiliar with the Oulton Park race circuit, its a brilliant track which is thought by many to be one of the finest, if not the finest track for racing bikes in the UK. In fact, Oulton Park was voted as being the best race track in the UK by fans of the BSB championship in 2007.

My personal favourite part of the circuit is the Knickerbrook section of the circuit, where things can get really lively!

Favourite this weekend is probably Leon Camier, who after having scored a win and a 2nd in the previous meeting at Brands Hatch, will be full of confidence as he travels north. Camier, who rides for the Airwaves Yamaha team, currently lies second in the championship behind early leader Sylvain Guintoli.

Oulton Park circuit is in the village of Little Budworth in Cheshire. Its about 13 miles from Chester and 17 miles from Warrington. If you are travelling from the M6 then you are best to take the exit at Junction 18 and follow the A54. Oulton Park race circuit will be signposted from there. Dont even think about getting that train from London this weekend as those clowns at Virgin Trains have works on the line all weekend because they believe that nobody travels over the bank holiday weekend.
