I think I'll be doing a track day on the Duke in April (learning towards April 24th and Thunderhill). If anyone would like to join, let me know!
I'm already planning on going to that Thudnerhill West weekend with some friends, it'll be my first track day. So yes, see you there!Hey Bay Area dukes - bumping this back up. There's too many of us around here to not get together, and I'm jealous of the Aussies and their "rides in paradise"......
We've got a couple options, namely: road or track. My preference would be a track day, as since I started doing them last year it's really decreased my willingness to push it on the street (And I was already conservative to start with). And, with us all getting together, I feel the desire to "push it" will be strong haha. That said, I'm open to whatever gets us together so I'll propose two options:
*Road*: We meet this weekend (8/12 or 8/13) at one of the local go-to twisties for a group ride. I suggest meetings at Alice's and riding the SC mountains, but I'm open to other options if people want to lead elswhere.
*Track*: THill West w/ Fun track Dayz on September 16th &/or 17th (Sat/Sun). In my opinion THill West is the best track around for the Duke. It's also just really fun and probably the friendliest for first time track riders (not many blind turns, mostly positive camber, not really high speed corners), and it's about as cheap as peak season weekend track days come ($150/day).
On a side note: I'll be riding Sonoma w/ Z2 next Tuesday (8/15) and THill East next Saturday (8/19) if anyone is going/wants to join.
