Question 1

WHAT DOES A TYPICAL DAY AT THE FAST RIDING SCHOOL LOOK LIKE?

Accepted Answer

1. Classroom: After registration, head instructor starts with a 60-75 minutes in-depth discussion on riding theory and skill development (phase 1). Then, you get suited up for the racetrack while the class is broken into 3 groups of approximately 12 riders, each group with its own experienced instructor.
2. Track Time: You ride 7 track sessions, on average 10 minutes each. Each one focuses on certain techniques discussed earlier in class. You start by riding with the instructors to familiarize yourself with the motorcycle and the racetrack. Each riding session has 3 parts: a briefing by head instructor on what to practice and focus on, track time, and your instructor's report. This final element is what will help you correct mistakes and improve from one riding session to the next.
3. Final Meeting: The day ends with a discussion, an award presentation for 'top riders of the day' and graduation certificates, and next Phases to still improve your skills.

Question 3

WHAT SOULD I BRING?

Accepted Answer

That depends. You can bring your own motorcycle and riding gear… or simply use ours. Prices are adjusted accordingly. An extra t-shirt and a change of clothes are also a good idea. There is plenty of water to drink between riding sessions, but if it's a very hot day you might want to bring a sports drink.

Lunch is not provided, but the racetrack snack bar is open at lunch time offering popular snack bar options. $10.00 is usually enough for a meal or, if you prefer, you can bring your own food.

Question 4

WHAT ABOUT PHOTOGRAPHY?

Accepted Answer

A professional photographer, Damian Pereira, will take digital pictures of all students while they're on the track. You must sign up with him at the beginning of the day or lunch time.

Question 5

DO YOU HAVE A COURSE FOR MORE MATURE, OLDER RIDERS?"

Accepted Answer

We do not have a specific course for older riders because any older rider can fit in our regular program if he or she has some riding experience and is willing to learn. Our courses can help older riders improve and feel safer out on the road (or track). 
** OUR FAST COURSES ARE GEARED TO SUIT EVERY TYPE OF RIDER AND all RIDER LEVELs **

Whether you're young or old, male or female, a sport bike rider or touring enthusiast, with short time or long time of riding experience, we will teach you how to become a safer and more confident rider in a controlled structured environment while having fun. 
Each course is for 36 riders divided into 3 groups according to their speed, experience and confidence. Only 1 group at a time is riding on the track making it a maximum of 12 riders on the track at the same time.

We have a conservative riders group for beginners and less experienced riders, We have an Intermediate riders group with a little more experience and confidence but not really focused on speeding, And we have a more experienced and confident riders group for the one searching for more speed.
