It means exactly that. Don't expect the likes of the AA to collect your bike from a track if you crash it. This is one of the reasons people take road-legal bikes in vans or on trailers.

There have been plenty of tales of people crashing their bike at a trackday, pushing it off the circuit and to the nearest roundabout, and phoning recovery under the pretence they crashed on the road. It's simpler to just hire a van for the day.
