First Track Day..... ????
 

Hi Guys,

A bit of advise is needed please... I want to do a track day, but not sure what track I should start on???

HELP...

Kelly :puzzled:

Should have nabbed your old mans bike last Friday Kel and started at Cadwell :lol:

There is a thread about this somewhere in the trackdays section from a while ago. I normally suggest Brands Indy as a good place to start. It's got a blend of all sorts of different corners but most importantly, I think, is that as it's a short circuit you'll get plenty of laps in so it won't take too long to learn where you're going and to get comfortable.

Cadwell was my first trackday and i loved it to bits! I would have been a bit lost without the marker cones though. Its not really a flat out top speed track like the airfield circuits so in that respect i guess its a little safer. There are a couple of bends where you have to commit slightly (the goosneck and coppice) but if you have got the bottle to do that then its fantastic.

Shoulda got your kit on at cadwell firefly - but you know that already!
(Can't believe I just told a chick to get her kit ON!!)

Seriously, I don't think the venue matters, just start in the novice group and you'll have no trouble. There's absolutely no pressure to go faster than you're comfy with.

Just a word of warning though..... make sure you can afford to do lots more - cos they're so addictive!

I did my first one at Snetterton, sure it's fast, but it's easy to learn and it got me quite used to the idea of riding on a track rather than the road.

Come up to Cadwell on 16th August Kel-you know we will look after you.:lol:

John

if I can do Cads, so can you! Just use Fils R not your nc;)

I might just do that Monty :)

Maybe see you there

kelly if you are going in the novice group it shouldnt really matter what track you do....just ride at your own pace and you will love it..

just make sure if you do a track far away.
its alway better to stay at a b@b just so you are not to worn out before you go on track.....riding to a track is not a good idea...

what ever track you do have fun.......................:roll:

whats pembrey like as a first track day?
