You can hear the bikes "circulating" around the lake in bunches. (And you can estimate the number of bikes in each of the bunches as they take off from their stops).

I never thought to determine the general direction of the circulation, but I'm thinking it's clockwise around the lake. You'd think it would be the other way -- counter-clockwise -- like when you enter a supermarket, boat-show or home-show, and turn right.

I actually spent many hours this weekend sitting in the Broads and it was very peacefull.Just a handfull of boats came within a few hundred feet of me all weekend and never heard any motorcycles while there.APC would have been waiting for a breeze for a long time cuz both days while hanging in the middle of the lake it was dead calm.Too calm!!It was darn hot!!
