Are leathers a requirement then. It's not a track day

2x 20 minute track sessions!

[codgie]

would this help people who cant go round corners??? :lol

[dazza]

Been thinking about this. Maybe those interested should agree on a month, say may/june give the weather chance to improve, people get themselves some leathers and if we book it soon we should all be able to get on the same date. Just saying.

[kitcrazy]

sounds like a plan

since it's meant to be primarily about safer riding skills on the roads (or so i thought)and not racing surely having to have 1peice leathers eliminates a good number of the riders who probably need it most :\ [size=78%].[/size]

It does and one I'd be up for..........subject to clothing requirements :'(

They hold different types of road skills days, holding this one at a track makes perfect sense as you can learn a lot more about what you and the bike are capable of on the track safer than on roads.
Having received an email it appears you can hire leathers for £45 for the day.
If you want to do their road skills training without the track sessions then pick a suitable training day!

Oooo no need for the strop '!'  :rolleyes
thanks for info tho, makes perfect sense now

[Punkstig]

Haha, no strop- text is easily misunderstood.
Tbh, I couldn't think of a better day for any track virgins, a nice comfortable learning day with no pressure associated with such!

[midden]

apart from getting one piece leathers in my size and without giving me a sex change  :rolleyes :lol

[Grandma]

For those of you who expressed an interest some provisional dates have been set. It would be good if we could get a foccer contingent to enrole on the same date. Thoughts anyone ?
