Ducati Glasgow Trackday August 17th 6pm - 8pm

Our next monthly Knockhill Track Evening is booked for Thursday 17th August 6pm-8pm

We are taking bookings now, if you were at the last one in July you will know how much fun we had. This is the second to last trackevening we have booked and is filling up fast.

As part of our commitment to our customers we organise trackdays.

We do this so we can offer specialist knowledge about the bikes, pass on our experience with them and try to offer any assistance possible.

On every trackday we have staff members on hand to take you round and show you the lines and braking points. We work with you at your own level and concentrate on parts of your riding that you want to work on. We also have our resident suspension technician on hand to offer any tips or track side adjustments that you might try.
ALL OF THIS IS INCLUDED IN THE £60 PRICE OF EACH TICKET

The track is somewhere you can forget about all of the usual concerns about road riding ie:- pot-holes, cars, buses, hedgehogs, brick walls etc,etc,etc. The emphasis is on FUN and SAFETY.

Just because the speeds are generally higher, doesn't mean the danger is! The best way to approach a trackday is viewing the circuit as a safe stretch of road that you can learn easily.

Every rider on track will be riding their pride and joy so it is a very courteous environment, there is no fairing bashing!

Call us for more details or just to book yourself on.

How a trackday works!

The set-up is simple. All 40 riders on the track together whether novice or fast for a 2 hours "open" session.
For those not familiar with the terminology:- normally trackdays take the form of riders split into groups according to skill level. Each group then gets usually 10 - 15 mins on the track then breaks while the other groups get their turn.
On an open session track evening such as ours, the pit lane is open so riders can come in and out as much as they please. Maximising track time as much as possible.

The secret to these evenings is all about the briefing the riders receive before hitting the tarmac.
The safety briefing from the Knockhill staff is fully comprehensive. Track misbehaviour is simply not tolerated by them or us. The effect is that all skill and speed levels can intermingle on the track easily and without incident. The positive effect being the slower guys learn from the faster guys!

Over-taking is done only in straight lines, either on the brakes or on the straights. We always recommend leaving the deep corner overtaking manouevres to the racers and the Pro's.

Safety taken care, it's easy to relax and enjoy the pure enjoyment of riding your motorcycle

If you've not tried one, give it a go, you'll be pleasantly surprised at how organised our events are and just how much fun you will have.

Martin, if I wasn't in Devon on the 18th and Cadwell on the 21st I'd be up for this. Hope you all have a great day and don't forget to post pictures.

:D

Davie mind & check the pollin count !

Hideout, the folks who geniusly engineered my riding atire in the first place, have kindly agreed to sow in some all round zips to the trousers gratis likes :thumbs: Great, but I don't know if I'm going to have them in time for the track night :(

I'm doing Pro-Scot's High Speed Cornering Techniques course on Thursday and Friday, so I need them for that :comp2:

I'll be there no matter what, but doubt I'll be on the track. Unless Kate (ahh Kate...she sounds so lovely :o )works wonders...I dunno, maybe if I post them on Saturday they'll get them Monday morning, and if they post them back on Tuesday night...maybe...fingers crossed :)
 
it's a shame your 9ft 5" otherwise I could have lent you my spare leathers! ;)
 
OK, slight change of plan. I've just won a tasty set of leathers on eBay. But...not even the most dedicated Elves living on a diet of pure amphetamine are going to be able to do whatever it is they do to make these babies fit my ample frame in time for next Wednesday.

I'm still coming to watch, but Martin...hang on to that cheque for September :thumbs:

Jolly Yellow Giant :D
