OK who's going to be coming down under for this absolutely awesome event.

Held at probably one of the best circuits in the world. You can get up close and personal to the bikes and riders, access to the pits when the racing is happening and hundreds of awesome oldskool bikes both in the pits and in the car/bike park.
I went for the first time last year and as far as I'm concerned absolutely knocks spots off Moto GP and is now on my must do list every year. Much more informal and access to palces including the track that you just don't get at WSB or Moto GP.
Some awesome racing and rumour has it that the US of A are bringing some BIG NAME riders over this year.
I'm lucky that I only live about an hour away from the circuit but if you're planning on coming to Oz at that time of year it's a must see event. Tickets start at $15 which means prices start at next to F#*! all

It's in the middle of our summertime too.
