So I think a 'Taster Session' instead of a full Sessioned Track Day is probably the best way to go for a first ever outing to a Track day on my monster 696. So I've plucked up the courage and booked myself on a "taster session" via Club MSV at Bedford Autodrome this Saturday (25th August). EEK! Let me know if any of you guys will be doing this track day.
Fantastic track, hope the weather holds for you, have a look at this Chamby and Keabs at Bedford Autodrome - YouTube , was a wet day when we were there , was still fantastic tho
Yes, just now booked for Saturday 25 August. I shall be on my red Multistrada, having put myself down for Intermediates. Did one at Bedford last Autumn.
Hey Chamby, great vid! OK so silly question, If it does rain do you just go on track in your leathers and well if you get soaked, you get soaked? Pete1950, I'll be on a black monster 696
I'll have a waterproof over-jacket, over-trousers and gloves with me. If it comes on to rain, I'll put them on to keep my leathers dry. If there is a real deluge, may wait in the pit garages until it eases off. Not a good idea to let your leathers get wet and your boots full!
i use a jonny suit personally, it leaves the legs out so allows for easy movement, the tyre guy was selling them last time i was there & the good news is bedford dries out quite quickly on the racing line , have a great day
Sorry, I won't be able to come after all. I'm poorly with a chest infection, antibiotics, etc. Good luck, and let us know how it went.
