> How to
get started in motorcycle racing (road based)
Racing motorcycles is probably the
most adrenaline pumping form of road based racing.
It demands concentration, skilled machine control,
bravery, and fitness. Road racing is run on purpose
built racetracks, converted airfields and on closed
public roads (i.e. The Isle of Man). There are numerous
categories for road racing catering for small capacity
bikes (50cc) through to large superbikes, there are
categories of classic and vintage bikes, not to mention
sidecar racing as well.
As with other forms
of sport, its probably best to start racing when you
are young having said that we are constantly amazed
by the number of gray haired fellas we see on the
track wearing novice vests (v. cool!)
Racing motorcycles
is one of the most dangerous sports known to man.
If you participate in this sport you will most certainly
suffer some sort of injury (perhaps serious/fatal).
Before you attempt
any form of motorcycle racing we strongly recommend
you take lessons from a qualified instructors. Read
our disclaimer. Its also a good idea to get some life
insurance and update your Will.
