11th and 12th July sounds good and should stand a chance of good weather.
Which day is preferred for those doing just one day ?

Anglesey is pretty good, very grippy and lots of wide open spaces and plenty of run off/grass etc
Also most of the corners are open and not hidden by scenery so it's pretty easy to look ahead
Also the scenery is breath taking if you manage to look
A short video from 2007 when we first went to learn the track
