Ducati Glasgow Trackevening Sept 8th NOTE: START TIME CHANGED:6pm - 8pm.
Yes folks it's true, sadly the last one of these top events is coming up and there's loads of you who have been meaning to come all year but haven't made it for some feeble excuse or another.
SO this is your big chance to get booked on for the last of 2006.
Note: the time is now AS PER USUAL, BE THERE FOR 5.30PM ON TRACK FOR 6PM
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. At the same time the atmosphere is friendly, fun and all concerned have a great laugh and a chat throughout the evening.
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.

especially as the circuit is open all night and no groups and time slots. Having the choice of going on when YOU want to must be the best way as I can remember all the track days I have done in the past standing around waiting and waiting. 
I think I'm gonna have to sit this one out, the season is tailing off now - thus leaving me short on ££££. It costs me from up here about £120 in fuel alone - and that is just the bl*ody LandRover!
