Hello... I’m looking for track days anonymous... am I in the right place?

Post by Theblondebiker27 »

Hey!! I’m Beth aka theblondebiker27 ☺️
I live just outside of Bath and find myself with a ‘slight’ track addiction!
I’ve been riding for 3.5 years and love the adventures and friendships that biking has bought me.
I ride a beautiful red triumph Daytona 675 and I’m really hoping (like you all I’m sure!) that 2021 brings more freedom and more adventures!

Hi Beth

Welcome to the forum. Glad to have you with us. Its fair to say that a few of us myself included have a track day addiction. You will find most of us post up where we are going in the Track Days area viewforum.php?f=49

I normally get about 6 per year in but you will find some people like Shammy (Sam (female)) who is normally upwards of 30 per year. Always great to have a familiar face around at track days so your not alone and also where ever possible try and help each out out or share a ride (when we are not in covid times )

Llandow is a great starter track and is also a great way to meet others to help you secure the bug but then normally reach out and have days at Cadwell, Oulton, Donington etc.

I normally hire a track bike from Small Boys Track Hire Bikes and last year they had a Triumph 765 which was really epic on track loved it. Red5 is on a 675 and has been for a few years. excellent Track bike.

Hope to see you on track 2021 :ymhug: :-bd

I'm usually the one southwestbikers are ashamed of!!
But welcome.

Your red 675 looks smart, what track days have you been to so far?

Hi Beth, I might get to the track once or twice a year. Normally lurk around Oulton and Cadwell.

Welcome, I managed 2 track days with guys off this forum which made it a much nicer experience. Here's the link talking about both, good luck. I am hoping to get to some more next year if my other hobby doesn't get in the way!

First at Pembrey:

Hey blond biker :) Fancy seeing you here!

The llandow day with this bunch is great fun (not that I’ve done it since 2010!) a little track but good fun. This addiction is going to cost you a fortune but hey it’s the most fun you can have in leather :D
