It was everything I expected and then some, including the chaos of a large group. Up the mountain, down the mountain, I was sick of hairpins by the end of the third day, but really had them wired. The views during the riding & especially at the stops more than outweighed the effort to get there. My F800R could change line at will, so I made the most of it. The food & the beer were also great. Sachsenring is more technical than it looks on paper. I could have used a third day to get faster. It was worth every penny to ride a MotoGP track, especially after going to the Brno round the week before.
