Riding sessions

Riders will be broken into 3 groups depending on skill level and confidence.  It is up to the rider to decide which group to enter and they may change during the day if they feel they have chosen the wrong level.
 

SlowNewcomer/Novice
MediumCompetent, reasonably confident
Fast Confident, comfortable at speed

  • Each group will have at least 5 sessions of 15 minutes each
  • Riders will assemble 5 minutes before their session starts
  • There will be a lead rider for the first session of each group (2 laps) to familiarise yourself with the track.  No passing lead rider!
  • A yellow flag means caution – slow down, be aware
  • A red flag means the session has stopped - return safely to the pits, do NOT stop on the track!
  • A black flag - a KiwiTrackDays representative will indicate to an individual rider to exit to pit lane.  This may be required in the event of a mechanical fault or rider indiscretion
  • Any rider may be excluded at the organiser’s discretion
  • Dangerous or erratic riding may result in rider exclusion

Riding rules

  • RIDE AT YOUR OWN PACE!
  • The overtaking rider is responsible for the passing manoeuvre

  • Riders in the slow or medium groups must not pass on the inside at a corner
  • Riders must signal with a hand or leg gesture when exiting the track
  • Riders must wear appropriate safety gear
  • Dangerous riding will NOT be tolerated
