How is the charity work? Do we get to go for rides with the drivers for a donation? The James Fund did this and it was so much fun!!!

Do you guys have/need marshals?
 
would the technical course be suitable to a supermoto type bike ?

Yes it would.

There are tight sections with a big back straight as well as some fast sweepers.

Laptime on a 600cc is 1:14-1:17 at race pace.

Why wait for the weather? Just book now! If it's cancelled you won't be billed.

They need to know the number of riders that will be attending. If the numbers are low then they will cancel.

Not sure of the numbers as of today but anyone thinking about riding please book soon so we can all get one last ride in.

We're booked and will see everyone Sunday.
 
The weather for Sunday is currently showing as partly Sunny, High of 10 degrees, winds at less than 10K/hr - so it looks like a good riding day as of right now.
We currently have 5 riders signed up - we need a minimum of 10 by Friday at Noon to go ahead. There will be no shortage of track time. :)
 
Environment Canada can't seem to make up their minds on this one. That said, I haven't made up my mind on it either. But I'm hopeful!
