Private Ride Days.....Great Fun!

Private Ride Day

One of the benefits of the preponderance of practice tracks is the ability of groups to rent a track for their own private use. There is great fun to be had being able to use a track without having to worry about a 9 year old on a KTM 65 jumping over the top of you on what you thought was two single jumps. You can ride with your buds in your own private duel or you can actually practice riding techniques. Private ride days are just a lot of fun but of course you have to get an invite to one of these ride days to enjoy the ride. Unless you have money to burn, are a factory rider, or know someone that owns a track you may have to search far and wide to find one of these days. I recently was lucky to get an invite to the Sierra MC Private Ride Day at the MMX sand track in Marysville, CA. What a Blast! The track was an old school sand track and all of the invited riders were vets. You could ride as long as you wanted and I wore myself out. The track was in great shape, never crowded.  It was a perfect day made better by the fact that the club threw in a hot lunch and a nice raffle. I saw a couple of guys go home with new Works Connection bike stands. Yeah think about it…..a groomed track, no crowds, no mini bikes, a hot lunch and freebies. I think I like this private ride day concept. I’ll be watching for the next Sierra MC ride day. Keep your eye out for a private ride day in your area.
