Im looking to do my first trackday this year, im based North east london but has anyone got any recommendations for where to do it?
I’d say Brands would be a good place to start, not far from you either, I done my first trackday there and have been back a couple of times since
Silverstone…
The new MotoGP track…
Snetterton is also good if you’re new to track days. The track is quite simple with some easy corners and a couple of long straights. Loads of run off just in case too Also has a restaurant which is good if you have people coming with you.
id say brands indy not too complex but enough of a challenge and easy to get too
thanks! think i’ll give brands hatch a go when the weather it a bit better and my chain/sprockets and clutch cable have all been replaced
do you guys take your bike on a trailer or in a van or do you just ride it there?
yeah Brands indy (GP is good, but not the best for a first) is a good one to do first off, also snetterton.
Have a look at MSV trackdays - they do novice only days in case you are worried about other people (but on a normal trackday there is no real need to be worried…)
I normally ride my bike there as I am close to Brands, and have a sister that lives in northampton (silverstone, rockingham and donny) and a mum in norfolk (snetterton) so makes it easier.
lots of people van it up and it does seem a nice way to do it (especially when it rains!)
if i had a van i’d definitely go that route but i will be riding until that happens
Rockingham is good, i did my first trackday there and it suited for smaller bikes:D
Lots of turns and the track is wide enough to run off a bit:D
One of the tracks with a good left hander, if your going let me know i join in wif the fun
