Track days? Well there is a Racer School on Friday, All Day CCS Practice on Saturday, and CCS Races on Sunday.

I believe Polens 1 on 1 is there on Friday with us as well.

thanks. i know you probably wouldn't do any. just was asking if there happened to be a group of riders getting some extra laps while in that area, or stopping at any tracks on the way back home.

I am out of work. Maybe I will go and be pit bitch.

Yes he is, but that is through Ducati for the people who bought bikes from them.
Are you putting on the Track Experience gig this time around or only on February?

As much fun as it would be to ride there Id say dont waste your time and money if your goal is to keep you legs in shape.

Get yourself one of these



And/Or one of these



I have fun on the dirt bike and hopefully on the ice this winter but the bicycle has proven to be a really good workout for me. Im going to look into the club that rides the track next season.

I have both those things! Indoor trainers have to be the most boring thing ever created in life!! I can barely get 15 mins in before I am bored outta my skull!

I cant argue with that. It is very boring. However its a good work out. I can usually get 30min in before Ive had enough. Id rather race all year but I cant get enough time off from work and I cant afford it I need to do something to keep me in some sort of shape until next season.

Skiing.
There are some ski trainers too:
Skiers edge
Ultraslide by varisport.com or much cheaper version but probably a little sketchier Valslides found at Valerie-waters.com

I'd love to go - but too many toys to try to buy in the off season....

Dirtbike is on the list. I try to ride the trainer for 30-45 min while watching 990cc motogp dvds. Even then it sucks, only slightly better than a treadmill.

I can't find a ride or room for a bike. I am out.

They are severly boring. "Rollers" are somewhat more interesting, since they add the risk of falling off.

YouTube - 75km'h on rollers. (training)

Dr Mr Mendell,

You are banned from posting on the intranetweb. That vidoe sucked. At least you could get a video of a guy actually falling off the "rollers".

Thanks,

Thats why I dont have rollers. I would fall off them.
