Trackday for Novice

Basics

Novice, as we define it, are riders who have never done a trackday or very few.

Main aim of this trackday for novice is to make you a better rider overall and not to make you a second Valentino Rossi!

There is 1 head instructor assisted by minimal 4 instructors (maximum 5 beginners per instructor).

You will have 14 practice sessions of 20 minutes spread over 2 days.

During Day 1, every practice session is headed by a theoretical assesment and followed by a debriefing.

Groups will count no more than 5 riders, each with their own instructor.


Day 2 consists of free practice sessions. Yet, for those who require more info, each instructor is at your service all day long. Even if you want them to follow individually and correct you afterwards.
