Hey Ladies,

I know there are several of us doing trackdays,  how about we post up the days we are doing.
Maybe some of us will have some in common.   [moto]

I'll start:

(already did 2 so far, one at Loudon,NH with DESMO, local Duc club I belong to.  Second was at the new track in south jersey, NJMP-Thunderbolt w/ Absolute Cycles a few weeks ago)

hi
I recently did a couple days at Loudon.
Next days are Aug 18 and 19 Mont Tremblant in Canada.

I'll be at Moto GP Indy and thinking about Putnam Park too. Have you ever been there?
Also curious what you thought of Thunderbolt. I'm thinking about 10/2 STT.

I meant to say 10/11 Thunderbolt, not 10/2

[aprilmaybe]

So far this year...

Star school at Pahrump, NV in feb - my new favorite track
Buttonwillow in April
Willow Springs in May

Time for another hit on the track pipe...
Aug 9-10 at Pahrump - Only this track could get me to ride in the desert in Aug
October 4-5 Femmoto in Las Vegas - not the same as a full track day, its a demo event at the track.
Possibly October 31 at Streets at Willow Springs

YAY!!

Looking at this, I should be a much better rider than I am

J,
I've never been to Putnam Park,  but I can't pass on the possibility of some Duc celebs showing up. There was mention of charity rides, so if there is any possibility of riding pillion to a racer (past or present) , I'M GOING!!! 

As for Thunderbolt, I ran on the Lightning Course.  It's superfast, non-technical.   Facility is nice, but there were no garages, at Lightning anyway, so bring a pop-up

So far this year I've done:

Barber with NESBA in July
VIR Full Course with Cornerspeed (School) in July

I've signed up and paid for:

VIR North with Mid-Atlantic Ducati (hosted by Cornerspeed) in October
Laguna Seca with Code (School) in November

We'll see how money goes, but I'd like to do a Cornerspeed track day again NOT on the full course and Thunderbolt with NESBA.  I'm waiting until the guys tell me if Summit is any better, since with that one I'm more fearing for my life!  Plus Summit tends to attract a lot of riff raff and can have problems with jack assery.  We'll see how it goes.  I'd REALLY like to do the New Year's track days at Jennings.

[Grrrly]

I've yet to do Summit main, I did 2 days at Shenandoah last Oct, and LOVED IT!!! 
Everyone told us the first day that people usually hate it, and that by the end of the day they like it.  It only took the first session for me to LOVE IT!

I'm signed up for 10/6/2008 Nesba, NJMP Thunderbolt.  beginner

will be there with a couple of other DeVal guys.  Would love to have you join us!

With respect to Shenny, I think my bones are allergic to Armco barriers.     I know a few people who have been taken out and bad things have happened.  If Stefan gets a supermoto, maybe I'll do JC next year, but Shenny is probably permanently off my books. 

With respect to that particular date at NJMP, that's 9 days before the MAD/Cornerspeed days at VIR North, so we'll see how the money is for it.  I really do want to check it out, though!

Shenny is permanently off my books based on the Supermoto I'm getting. 

[mostrobelle]

I've already done a couple this year...

...just a few more coming up and then I'm done for the year unless work slows down and pay increases happen (unlikely!)

Sept. 14, Thunderhill (Willows, CA)

Oct. 11,12, Thunderhill

[sully749]

So far, for me, it's been 3 days at Loudon, 2 days at Calabogie, and 3 days at Grattan.  I'm only scheduled for 2 more days at Loudon (8/14 and 9/3), so my track time is winding down for the year, although some friends and I are batting around a fall trip to Barber and/or NJMP.  Anybody have thoughts on which organization is running the best days at NJMP right now (as far as least squidly, reasonable number of riders on the track, etc.)?

JanieJane, please post a track report for Mt. Tremblant, I really wanted to go on that trip but I've run out of vacation this summer!!  I'd love to get up there next year.

July 21 st with the Martin's Motorsports

August 18th at Summit, Main with TPM
August 25th at NJMP with Nesba ..

it could be the other way around..

Can't wait to get back out there.. may have another bike to ride on the track tho instead of the monster.

[SheMonster]

Question -  you ladies ride your Monsters on the track, or do you have dedicated track bikes?

[Girlrider]

Hello,

Too damned hot to ride track this time of year in Texas, but I'm on a track day schedule 10/18 at Cresson Motorsport.
