Track Day for Bob's BMW Motorcycles


Thursday, July 3rd

Imagine: No speed limits. No cops. No double yellow lines. No soccer moms in SUVs. Just a big curvy road and no limitations except your own. Sound like a dream? It’s not. Bob's is partnering with Roger Lyle's MotorcycleXcitement Day at Summit Point Race Track in West Virginia to bring you a day of thrilling fun and valuable skill building. You’ll ride your own bike on a real race track where it’s just you, your machine, and the pavement — an environment as free from distraction and hazards as you’ll ever find. Your cost, if you register and prepay by June 1st, is only $225. After that it goes up to $250. Of course this includes some extra benefits too. Please read on.
 
This is not a seminar. It’s not a race. It’s not riding lessons. It’s just a chance to get onto a Summit Point Motorsports Park Bob's BMWtrack with folks you know to work on your skills in a relatively safe and controlled situation. Ride a few laps, take a break, talk about your experiences and what you’ve learned, and then get back on the track for more. You’re not expected to prove anything. There’s no trophy to win. The purpose of this day is to concentrate on one thing—riding to the best of your ability. You’ll be amazed at what it does for your skill and your confidence. (And you’ll definitely gain a new appreciation for the folks that actually race on these tracks.) But this is important: you don’t have to be a sport bike rider! All types of riders and are welcome and encouraged to attend. Bring your big tourer, your little enduro, or anything in between.
 
Working together with the regular pro staff at Summit Point, Bob’s team of “Control Riders” Bucky Sexton, Lex O'Brien, Darryl Carmichael, and Karl Wagner, will be on hand to assure your confidence, answer questions, provide tips and coaching as needed, and assist in any way possible to make your Track Day SAFE and FUN.

Here’s what you get with your Track Day experience:
1. An Orientation/Inspection Session here at Bob's prior to Track Day on June 21st where everything you need to know will be covered in detail. We’ll also pre-inspect your bike & gear for any that might disqualify your admittance to the track.
2. MotorcycleXcitement annual membership and the cool official T-SHIRT.
3. A FULL DAY at Summit Point. You’ll have LOTS of time riding the track!
4. Chilled drinking water and light snacks available throughout the day. (you’ll need it!)
5. Canopy tent and chairs where you can rest between track sessions.
6. A filling lunch at the Summit Point Café provided by Bob’s.

PLEASE NOTE: All bikes must pass a safety inspection. Particular attention is paid to tire condition (new or almost new tires are highly recommended). They will also look for oil leaks, loose or broken parts, and worn or unsafe suspension components, etc. Track operators reserve the right to refuse access to anyone whose motorcycle does not meet their safety standards. Riders will be expected to wear appropriate safe riding apparel that provides impact and abrasion protection to critical areas. Naturally, this includes an undamaged DOT approved full face helmet, sturdy riding boots and gloves, along with jacket and pants specifically designed for motorcycling. Both leather and textile are accepted. Knee sliders are NOT required! If desired, one-piece SPIDI full racing leather suits are available for rent at the track ($75/day).
