i will be doing this to get my ACU license and learn a bit about racing. its meant to be good and save going to rugby/using a days holiday. you also get to practice some grid starts and you can do practice on the other day if you want for an additional cost. bemsee are awy till the 18th so i will book it then if anyone else fancies joining me.

Deffo interested in doing this one - does it mean that we have to pay extra to join through Bemsee, get the ACU back, then join New Era for the DesmoDue though?

Or can we just do the pre-race booked through Bemsee and then use that to join New Era?

Just wondering like!

[dickieducati]

may have to join bemsee too but should not be too much and to be fair its alot cheaper doing it than for me than taking a day off work and going to rugby plus you can actually get your bike on track and have a bike of a dabble.

[antonye]

Good plan sir. Let me know when you book me in

Looks like a goer for me too as it's on a weekend. Let us know the bemsee details when they get back DD.

Cheers,

How does it get you your ACU ticket. I did one of the schools last November. Does that mean I don't need to go to Rugby?

[dickieducati]

no, they only do this once a year in feb i think. its run in conjunction with bemsee and incorporates the test necessary for the ACU. i just spoke to them today as my bike will still be mainly in road trim but they said just take off the lights and indicators etc.

i will be booking up for the saturday if anyone else fanvcies doing it too. i may book up for testing on the sunday as well but i will wait and see how my bike comes along first.

all the forms for the ACU, the course and BEMSEE joining are on their site.

Just had a chat with Bemsee, and it looks like it'll be easiest to send all ACU paperwork directly to them before the induction event. Price is £125 and includes the £50 exam fee and lunch, but it's another £25 to join the club. Forms can be had at their website :

So which day, and will you be taking the 600s?????

multi600: I should give the ACU a call and check the school is acceptable.

[dickieducati]

i am putting in for the saturday, so if it turns out to be good weather; by some freak of nature; i can do the sunday testing. i think 79 quid through ESS.

i will be on the 'croatiasun' monster 620.

[ali]

Errrmmmm... Bemsee have the track for both days, or am I missing something????

I'm in for a £70 sunday if it's up for grabs.
