* UKMOC - Track day BOOKING THREAD

[J.P]

ok, Here we go !!

When and Where?
The track day will be held at Cadwell Park in Lincolnshire on MONDAY AUGUST 3RD 2009.

Who is running the trackday?
The track day itself will be run by RAPID TRAINING UK.
I have reserved a block of spaces on behalf of the UKMOC and those spaces will be sold on a first come/first served basis. Any additional demand will be placed on a waiting list.
Rapid Training will be running this as a normal track day & there will be other riders there, but we hope to take up a large portion of the spaces just for the UKMOC.

They are very experienced company and I’ve used them a number of times before & have found them one of the best. There will be a minimum of two instructors per group riding around to help riders. Here’s a weblink to their Trackday advice document:

COST £115 per person.

The UKMOC allocation will only cover the Novice and Intermediate groups.
Anyone wishing to join the Experienced group will have to book directly with
Rapid Training on a first come/first served basis.

I've attached a word document with all the details you'll need for the time being and payment details to reserve your space.
It may seem ridiculously early in the year to be thinking about it, but summer dates get sold out VERY quickly and Cadwell Park in particular because it's one of the best tracks in the U.K.

LET'S MAKE THIS A TRACKDAY TO REMEMBER ! :yoparty:

[scrapps]

cheque in the post tomorrow J.P

its a awsome track and rapid run a great trackday :thumbsup:
inters for me please.

[singletrack]

Trackdays are like buses, there are none for 6 months then two come along at the same time!

Is it for Monsters only, or are are we allowed to take other Ducatis?

[scrapps]

I am taking my 750ss i am sure other Dukes are not a problem and J.p will be along soon to confirm.

[slob]

I have a mate with a WR400 supermoto, who might like a go in the novices if that's OK, let me know JP.

[J.P]

I'm sure we can include others obviously in the spirit of the UKMOC. The more the merrier.
It'll be like one big party.

[J.P]

ok, three gone so far ! Woop, woop !

[ladybird]

you got novice funds :)

[J.P]

Thanks Ladybird.

[slob]

...of course he may have bought himself an arse-ix by then,
there's no helping some people.

I'll get a cheque off to you in the morning
for 1x novice & 1 x Inter.

thanks for your efforts.

[J.P]

Cheers Rob.

[LouSCannon]

Deposit sent via PayPal JP... could well be my first trackday this, guess I've gotta start somewhere!

Planned to do a few more this year but already 2009 is disappearing!

Thanks for sorting this!

[J.P]

Thanks Kim, Novice Group you are.

[J.P]

But Jim, you can't go round with your wife on the back.

[LouSCannon]

It's girlfriend (and not the same one as last year), and I'm on the verge of talking her in to taking a CBT this year!

Still, bit early for a trackday for her eh? :)

[J.P]

Mabe we can Logyk to bring along his Desmosedici ?

[johnsy]

And better make that Novice goup

[J.P]

[Albie]

Pm me your addy Justin. I take it I can decide what bike to take. I think it will be the 748 at this moment in time as monnie too loud.

[Gadget]

[johnsy]

Got it Johnsy thanks.

It was the easiest way to get it looking used, and tell your mum "there are plenty of Monsters :on: "

[J.P]

PLEASE, IF YOU SEND ME MONEY, TELL ME WHICH GROUP YOU WANT AS WELL.

Albie, what group ?

[slob]

Mabe we can Logyk to bring along his Desmosedici ?

[singletrack]

I'd like to come JP, but I can't make Mondays :(

[Albie]

Sorry your right it does read like that. I mean Im not used to tracking the 748.

[phil996]

I have already booked direct with Rapid, see you there!

[J.P]

Phil, remember to bring the right boots this time...

[bigredduke]

Would've loved to come along but I shall be in La Belle France that date. Shame, 'cos Cadwell is only one hour away & a lovely run. Enjoy yourselves.

[J.P]

15 spaces already gone and I'm looking to fill loads more.
We're the biggest Ducati Monster owners club, so lets make it a great day.

[phil996]

Phil, remember to bring the right boots this time...

JP believe me you only do that stunt once!

[J.P]

Hello Ladies & Gents.
Come on, keep those deposits coming.

[J.P]

If you're going use PAYPAL to pay me the deposit or final payment, PLEASE, make sure you pay the fee.
I don't want too when I'm receiving money.

[Zimbo]

I'll do it too if I can use a 600SS?

Also, for anyone that's interested, the Desmodue race series is running there on Sunday 2nd, so why not make a two day event?

[J.P]

That's a really good idea Zimbo.
I'm sure the 600SS would be ok, but you'll probably be best to check with the people the people at Rapid Training directly, gary@rapidtraining.co.uk.

As far as I am aware it just needs to be in good mechanical order and make it under the noise limit of 105 dbs.
And I'm pretty sure you'd be in the 'experienced group' so you should then just book through their website to secure your space directly as I'm just holding novice and imtermediate spaces.
Cheers.

[yantheman]

Hi J.P., how many places left? I really wanted to go, but I have no leathers... I am budgeting a set of leathers + possible a European trip this summer, it is going to be tight.

How much more time can I think about this?

[J.P]

You've got a couple of months mate, but it's on a first come first served basis so I can't hold any spaces for the block I've got. I'm sure it'll be fine, just don't eat as many croissants....

[yantheman]

Cheers, J.P, I think I will know in early April if I can afford a set of leathers and and trip to Europe... and see which one is more important if I cannot afford both :) Will post cheque/Paypal you if I know for sure what is happening.

[J.P]

ok Yan. Can be a set of yip together leathers for the track, no need for a full one piece set.

[Zimbo]

That's a really good idea Zimbo.
I'm sure the 600SS would be ok, but you'll probably be best to check with the people the people at Rapid Training directly, gary@rapidtraining.co.uk.



Thanks J P, I'm sure the SS will be no problem with Rapid Training, I was more concerned that it would be ok with the UKMOC as it's not strictly a monster!

[J.P]

Dont worry about that Zimbo.

[J.P]

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
I was informed by Rapid Training today that they have already completely sold their total allocation of INTERMEDIATE spaces for the August 3rd track day at Cadwell Park and are already turning people away. That means the only person with spaces is ME !
The same could well happen with the Novice spaces as we get into the springtime, so guarantee your slot with me soon....

[scrapps]

Thanks J P, I'm sure the SS will be no problem with Rapid Training, I was more concerned that it would be ok with the UKMOC as it's not strictly a monster!

there will be a few other ss to keep it comany. not going as fast but will still give a nod as you pass.

[Mand]

I'm hoping to be a spectator. It's on the calendar. :)

[J.P]

Is that all it is Mand ? 28 weeks !

[Mand]

Is that all it is Mand ? 28 weeks !


Yup to our big day! :heart:

[Raz]

Yipee, I'm in - first time out on track for the S4R - - not for me though, don't want to give J.P. a heart attack as I asked to go into the Inters ;)
Roll on August!

[J.P]

The more the merrier Raz.

[J.P]

OK, There's been a bit of double booking by the Company for the INTERMEDIATE GROUP, so booking is closed for that group. There will be 8 of us tearing up the session.

Still plenty of space in the Novice Group.

I REALLY WANT TO GET MORE NOVICES INVOLVED TO MAKE IT A GREAT FUN DAY SO KEEP 'EM COMING PLEASE.

[J.P]

So lots of Newbie members appeared recently, come on over to join the club.

[J.P]

ok, better hurry up if you're thinking about this, lots of spaces dissapeared from the company running the day and getting almost full.

[J.P]

I'm going to be closing this up soon. Still got some places but they won't be around forever.

[pegboy]

Hi JP

Just looking through the thread, did i send you a cheque for this track day. I been away for 7 weeks and thought i did before i left?

Also i have no leathers either, is it the case of no lethers no ride?

Cheers

[J.P]

Yes you did send a cheque and you're right, no leathers, no ride.

[J.P]

one piece leathers or two piece , but has to zip together all the way round

[pegboy]

Ok then, anyone recommend a leather shop

[J.P]

Might be an idea to keep your ear open for Bike shows where their might be a bit of a discount, otherwise it the usual suspects for shops I guess.

[inframike]

Hi,

Any spaces left? Anyone going up from London?

Mike :scratch:

[J.P]

No spaces on the group that I had reserved, total of 14 of us going up.
Try calling Rapid Training direct and get yourself on the reserve list, they have cancellations occasionally. Good luck.

[Marcustheanimal]

Are leathers compulsory at all track days?

[slob]

Oh yes! one piece or 2 piece with full zip
