Here ya go people.
Very much worth going to.
26th January at Manfeild.
***All makes and models welcome***
$125 Non riders club members (if pre entered)
$150 Non rider club members (if entered on the day)
Aaron Slight will be on hand for coaching too.
This is not a raceday, but trackbikes are welcome. The day will focus on basic riding techniques aswell as anything else you feel you need to work on. The price includes refreshments through the day and a cooked lunch.
The Honda Riders Club trackdays are one of the best things you can do to improve your riding, so I highly reccomend attending.
Any questions, email me at work...

Here's some details about the day and an entry form. They are well organised, include a cooked lunch and refreshments all day and Aaron is really approachable.
Normally these days are restricted to road bikes only but this one is open to all track and racebikes as well. The track and racebikes are run in a separate group.
Martin - sorry to hijack your thread but Rob asked me to round up some of the non roadbike crew.

Is there a "spectator only" admission? That is non-rider entry?

Free for spectators. But coaching/riding and lunch is for paying people only, for obvious reasons.

Lol no i aint seen ya ride yet (just the PG pics in ya profile lol) was just giving the thread a little bump in the hope it might get one or two more going along ! Got shown that same line on saturday (have yet to perfect it, lol kept stuffing it up and going back to a wide line)
Couldn't even make this training day myself, as i done the budget at manfield over the weekend ! But i have a nice pile of tyres to show for it (not to mention the aching body lol) Sure screwed every ball of rubber out of the sides of the racetecs this weekend ! Seems such a shame to take em off with all that tread in the middle Oh wait there are the sprints in carterton on the 1st hehe !

Great day today people! Weather was fantastic! Not too much carnage either.
Glad the numbers came up. Hope everyone who went got something out of it.

Yes it was a great day. We had seven sessions as they didn't stop for lunch and I managed to use up all the fuel I brought, which I've never come close to!! And I really like the Manfeild circuit... just as well given the travelling distance.
Aaron was a bit disappointed because he went there in the mood to teach, and many were out there for a fang, not to learn. So I managed to get quite a bit of Aaron's time - whether it makes any difference to my lap times now is another matter!!

Oh dam....sounds amazing, I would have loved to learn!
When is his next day? Is it next year?
