Castle Combe Event

Jun 04, 2011

The date for this year is Saturday June 4th 2011.

Castle Combe
For this event we have hired the Castle Combe Circuit again and all its facilities to provide participating riders the opportunity to ride around the circuit supervised by Castle Combe's own riders for a 15 minute session after receiving a full safety briefing, but not before completing a one hour on road ride out with a Police Advanced Motorcyclist on a two to one basis.

To book for the event just visit
http://www.avonandsomerset.police.uk/operations_and_initiatives/ride_to_arrive/bikesafe_event.aspx
and follow the instructions.

Riders taking part in the track experience are required to wear one piece leathers, two piece zip together leathers or suitable equivalent.

There will be something for everyone, even if you're not participating in the Police assessed ride and track experience, attractions include:

   the Steve Colley Motorcycle Stunt Show
   the opportunity to come along and meet the staff from the "Fast Bikes"
   magazine
   local motorcycle main dealers and others attending with a wide range of
   motorcycles on display, clothing and accessories for sale.

Parking and entry to show is totally free, spectators welcome.

The event focus remains the same as before, Road and Rider safety. The message is that further rider training, post test, can dramatically reduce the risk of involvement in serious or fatal incidents.

The Police ride out and track experience is open to any rider who holds a full motorcycle licence.

Due to strict legislation which Castle Combe Circuit must comply with, a noise limit of 105db applies to all bikes on the circuit
