Austin Texas in October
Jump to: Newest in thread
We went over last year but GP was cancelled . But had other things to do so not to much of a problem
Want to go over for it this year, but unless they change the rules on not being in the UK for previous 14 days. We can't afford it already been over 3 times since the start of covid and 2 weeks in the Caribbean on way out gets a bit spendy  . |

I will be there for the Moto GP at the beginning of October - covid notwithstanding given the current cancellations and re-schedules!!
Apart from hooking up with anyone, socially or otherwise (he hinted!), does anyone know if there is a good Factory Outlet mall not too far from the track?? I need to get some new Levis!!

There are 2 massive outlets just down I35 towards San Antonio - take you about 30 minutes to drive there (depending on traffic and where you're staying) . I35 can be a carpark at rush hour.
Google San Marcos Outlets and Tanger Outlets. There is definitely a Levi's Outlet there as well as many others . |

Merci bien! I'll look it up, I'm guessing it will stay open fairly late 'cause I wont get away from the track until way after the sessions have finished.

"Are you over for GP?
We’re planning to be over for that.....then a further month touring TX"
Just make sure you're in San Antonio for Dias de los Muertos on Nov 1- much better than Halloween (although SA is a cool place for that. Check out the King William District for amazingly decorated houses. |

"So far the sports travel company are saying the GP is on. Depends on what UK travel advice list the USA is on at the time o suppose"
Fortunately, I'm not under those restrictions. If the races are happening, then I will be there along with everyone else in the paddock. The difference will be if we are all restricted to remaining within the 'bubble' which could be a pain for visiting the shopping mall! |

Well, it looks like the G.P.is still going ahead!
We've been asked to book our offices at the circuit and that doesn't normally happen on a fly away unless Dorna are pretty confident all is well and things are going ahead.
If they cancel now, they will have to refund people........... |

Yeah ,got my tickets today  , no camping tickets available so guess will need to check out local hotels. Anyone have any suggestions for reasonable hotel near the circuit..
Someone suggested sleeping in the parking lot ? That would be comfortable in a mustang  |

"Thats my trip cancelled till next year then. Travel ban to UK residents to be lifted 2 weeks too late for me. See you in 2022 Austin"
There has never been a travel ban for UK residents . The ban is any non US resident that has been in Europe within the last 14days. I'm on my 3rd visit this year and 2 last year  |

"Just arrived at my hotel.. welcomed by a massive thunderstorm which bodes well for a weekend of racing!
No real problems, loads of paperwork, but all checked and no delays.  "
Well done for making it over. I've got a weekend ticket but saw the weather forecast , so have decided to drive done Saturday morning rather than Friday. Managed to get hotel near the airport |
