Book

  • To be admitted to the paddock you must have a EU Digital COVID Certificate with you.
  • This is in fact a QR code that will be scanned by the circuit staff, which you can show digitally (on your smartphone) or printed on paper.
  • The EU Digital COVID Certificate Regulation entered into application on 01 July 2021.
  • EU citizens and residents will now be able to have their Digital COVID Certificates issued and verified across the EU.

What is the EU Digital COVID Certificate?

An EU digital COVID Certificate is a digital proof that a person has either

  • been vaccinated against COVID-19
  • received a negative test result or
  • reccovered from COVID-19

Key features of the certificate

  • Digital and/or paper format
  • With QR code
  • Free of charge
  • In national language and English
  • Safe and secure
  • Valid in all EU countries

How can citizens get the certificate?

  • National authorities are in charge of issuing the certificate. It could, for example, be issued by test centres or health authorities, or directly via an eHealth portal. Information on how to get the certificate should be provided by the national health authorities. 
  • The digital version can be stored on a mobile device. Citizens can also request a paper version. Both will have a QR code that contains essential information, as well as a digital signature to make sure the certificate is authentic.
  • Member States have agreed on a common design that can be used for the electronic and paper versions to facilitate the recognition.

Experienced organization (since 2005)

In 2021, for the 10th consecutive year, EYBIS has the support of the factory BMW Motorrad in Munich.

This means we can enable you to test the new BMW S 1000 RR on the track!
The cost of a test ride is 20 €.
This includes:

  • insurance (max. costs in the event of a crash = 2.000 €)
  • tyre usage
  • gasoline for one session of a 20' ride (in your own group instead of your own motorcycle)

After the morning briefing you can - between 9.00 and 10.00 - register for a test session.

What to bring along:

  • ID card
  • Driver's license
  • Credit card (2.000 € guarantee)

Together we will determine in which session you will test the new BMW S 1000 RR on the track.
Then we attend you at the EYBIS pit box 15’ before your test session, where you will be assigned a coach.
After a brief introduction, he will explain the main features of your test motorcycle.
After finishing your test ride you will be "received" by your coach who will be interested in your feedback.

Usually this is impossible

Normally, you can test a BMW during a session of 20' on the circuit.
Renting a BMW for a day or a complete event is usually impossible.

In next cases however, it's possible

For people who can prove that geographically they come from too far to be able to bring their own motorcycle to our event, we can make an exception.

Concretely this usually means: living outside Europe.

That way, we already could welcome at our events clients coming from:

  • Australia
  • California (USA)
  • Canada
  • Lebanon
  • Russia
  • South-Africa
  • South-America

The number of motorcycles is limited.

Conditions

Included in the price of 600 € / day are:

  • tyre warmers
  • set tyres
  • fuel consumption
  • mechanic that permanently keeps the bike in good condition:
    • check before the start of the day on the circuit

      • fuel tank
    • check before the start of your first session

  • insurance, with a franchise of 2.000 €

To pay in cash on the spot: 600 € / day + 2.000 € caution
At the end of the event, we refund your caution of 2.000 €, unless your rental bike would be damaged
