relax & enjoy. Rockingham is a great ciruit

if neither of you have ever been on track before, go in the novice group to start with, you can always move up later if you want/need to

Im in novice as im no where near as confident or as good a rider as tris is

Is it best to trailer or ride bikes there (not far from us).
Im doing it to get my confidence up after my off (that was on a corner/bend)

I can't believe they allowed Tris to start off in inters if it is his first trackday, that's very bad form!!

Anyhoo, if you have a trailer then trailer it, its a no-brainer really

How much is it and who is the provider BTW? If you put a link then others might want to go

are you sure it's the 10th? I don't see that on Rockingham's website

If it's the 10th June, then I will be up for it. Still planning on doing Mallory on 26th May with Hottrax as well.

woah woah woah mate, Tris has been riding 10 years, and has driven race cars on track, I put him in the inters as hes a VERY good rider and is VERY confident on the bike-hed get frustrated in novice group, plus he knows what rockinghmas like. IF the instructors dont think hes coping in inters he will be moved.
Its £125 fot the day with css.

I wasn't saying he should stay in novice all day or making any assessment of his ability. But the simple fact is that he IS a noob and the trackday ppl should FORCE him to START in novice (some do - and with good reason )!!! He then gets moved up when he outgrows it, even if this is session 2!! Its bad form on the t-day company not to enforce this!!

£125 is a good price ... I might even give it a whirl meseln

Are you doing the school too?!!?
