This sounds like an awesome opportunity to take the 929 for a proper spin.

Are you able to tell us a break down of what's being covered?

And how many days is this?

**Sparky Bills** · 26th February 2008, 07:39

The Elite day is just the one day (6th April 2008).
They will cover pretty much anything you feel needs attention.
As it is limited to 60 riders, you should have plenty of time during the day to talk to the rider coaches and discuss what your wanting to work on.

There will be the usual slow, medium, fast and racebike classes, so no matter what experience level your at, we can help!

I heard you can't take race bikes along is this true?

or is someone pulling my leg

Can I bring my Zooki ? Bwahaha Oh the irony....

Can I twin share with Freddie Merkel ?

$500 for all that sounds like a steal but I'm buying a house (in Auckland) so will be a little strapped for cash. Will try to scrounge up though.

Not wanting to sound picky but is there a reason HRC members don't appear to get a discount vs everyone else?

I already get roadside through AA Plus and my insurance (yes 3 people to call when I break down) so am trying to see what benefit I get by re-joining when my membership expires. I get the feeling I'd be better off just saving the membership fee and putting it towards the next one of these days instead.

gah. I need some money

**MadDuck** · 27th February 2008, 20:08

So is this Honda only?

God forbid we exclude anybody.

I was talking about the normal HRC days, not this one

As I have said...
All are welcome to any of the HRC Days.

This is not just another development day. Its special.
Racebikes are allowed at this one, but the usual ones are for developing road riders skills. Not a track test session.
