    Howdy all, Mondello are now doing a one on one training course. They supply the bike and all the gear!!!

    I think it's a brill idea and although at €400 it may sound expensive, you get expert training and all the gear, thus saving your the cost of both the bike, insurance and the gear.

    All the training is undertaken by AON regestered assesors and more importantly, your first experiance on a bike is not a scary, life threathning fright that may turn you off the enjoyment of driving motorbikes.

    If they believe that you are capeable and you want to, they will also bring you out for an open road drive!


    Anyone thinking of biking can't turn this down.

    Enjoy.

    Are we talking track day training or beginners training!
    For 400 yo yo i wouldnt mind track day training, to get my laptimes down without risk to my baby (yamaha r1)!

    This one is for total novices to biking and is mainly for road use.

    There is another "Bike to bike" training session for the track using roadbikes only. I would reccomend a track day for everyone, €175 for the day. Great fun, and if your sensible little or no chance of falling off.

    Be warned tough, its addictive...;)

    Soon enough (well not soon enough really....tic toc) I'll be released from my power restriction and a different bike beckons.

    I'm looking to go and do another round of training and mention this to the instructor but does anyone have any tips when stepping up to full power?

    I went up last saturday to have a look at the last track day.I'd love to try it although tbh some of the lads looked scarey quick,I rekon if I did go out without some sort of training I'd probably cause an accident. They should have training for fat blokes on blades who can just about get the leg over,never mind down,that would suit me just fine:P

    Lads out on Saturday were all inters and advanced, very much more track experance than the novice group.

    Give it a go and you wont regret it. The pressure is not on going fast...more so on the getting around safely and enjoying yourseslf. "Yoiu are responsible for the guy in front of you". thats whats said.


    Only down side of the track day is that is is kinda disorienting (SP) as you have no road markings or mirrors and the eddicate of road riding go's out the window.


    However once you get over that...man, it's a blast.

    Its a good idea, €400 is a bit expensive but I suppose if ur on the wall as to weather u'd take to biking its cheaper(and safer) than buying a bike and all the gear...
