First Time Goin To The Track
 

I finally get to take my bike to the track for the first time...Any advice?I have ridden in the canyons so what is the diffrence besides the obvious?

The difference is night and day!

Take the first session to learn the track and then start working on your lines and corner speed.

Ride YOUR ride. Learn from those that are faster, but ride at your pace.

Have fun!

pick up a copy of this: Click

The most important thing is to keep your ego in check, when somebody passes you like your standing still (it will happen more than once), let them go
learn at your own pace but make sure you do LEARN
Its difficult to even imagine how much there is to learn from the control riders or instructors (what group are you riding with and where?)

for your first trackday, just finish the day without crashing or running off the track and build from there later on

forget about the lines...just be smooth and work on your body positions...
stay in the middle and let the faster riders past you...
get hold of the instructors to coach you...
and Have a blast!!!;)
