Poll: Opening Thompson Date Preference

[Woodcraft]

Hey all - I want to put something out there for you. We are finishing up our 2014 schedule and would like to get feedback from everyone regarding a preference for our July Thompson date - which will be the first motorcycle date at this course.

Option 1 - Friday July 4th
Option 2 - Monday July 7th + (if the demand is there) Tuesday July 8th

Thanks in advance for your feedback - we are looking forward to a great 2014!

I have July 4th off, so that works for me!

[tsorfas]

Isn't that around the classic? Usually? No?

[Rambunctous]

I voted July 4th. Wow what a holiday that would be. Question: If I pay first can I be the first?

Classic is mid June

Option 1 - Friday July 4th

Everyone has the 4th and following weekend off so I'd assume this would attract more people (including myself)

not those who work that day. as far as my work is concerned that's just another day. and I happen to also work Monday the 7th. grrrr.

Would it be cheaper on the 7th & 8th?

[Dave603]

I have all of those dates off (hopefully) so I vote option 2 because it has more track time! (hopefully)

[boloson]

Option 2 please

[Trackday Guru]

Option 2 would be my preference....but either works for me

[union]

I like the 4th Put me on the list

[Woodcraft]

Thanks for everyone who put their vote in. We should have some details on the schedule coming soon.

Eric,
is there racing at thompson?

[sdog30]

I was actually curious how you would have the days set up with no racing as well? 3 groups? 3 schools (track experience, basic, advanced)?

[Woodcraft]

There will not be any racing at Thompson in 2014 for sure. We are not sure what the future holds.....but the track itself should be capable of having races, it's just a matter if someone decides to try to put them on.

We would certainly separate racers and non racers on the track as we always do. Since they are not racing there in 2014, we would not hold a Basic Course (which is primarily a license certification course) at Thompson. Our days at Thompson will focus on two things: riding time and helping our students to ride faster with more confidence.
