Welcome to the boards. Keep an eye on the rides section for any rides that may pop up, and come meet the entire gaggle at the next bike night.

Great advantage of doing a RideSmart day. If it's your first time they'll rent you leathers for free.

As already stated, if it's your first trackday with RideSmart they will rent you leathers for free. I'm not going to be running the trackday myself this weekend, due to funding. But will be riding down to hang out and watch everyone else run. If you want to meet up and ride down with me, so you can meet the group, your welcome to.
