Right, so what I'll do is make sure that any events that MotoGymkhana are running are posted on here. There are a few regional clubs, the strongest being the East Midlands. As well as the competition days there are Experience Days where you get a short go to see if you like it, this is what Graham has done. However the clubs are also planning to run 'practice and play' days where club members can spend the whole day just practicing different types of course and obstacles. As I understand it non members can pay to become a temporary member for the day so can join in. I'll check exactly what the situation is and post it all on here when events come up.
I'm new to it this year on my FZ6 and in the first 2 rounds of the championship I have managed an 8th and a 5th, finishing 3rd novice and first novice too. Unless you've given it a go you won't know what you're missing. Even though you don't get out of first gear it's real adrenaline fuelled stuff. After my first timed competition run my hands were shaking from the buzz. I can even practice in my local Dobbies car park at nights, can't do that for track days.
