Race School May 31st 2018:
The VRRA in conjunction with Racing Associates Canada Events (RACE) will present for 2018, two racing schools.
The VRRA Stage 1 School is intended to instruct riders in the basic skills required for organized road racing competition. Riders who successfully pass this course will be eligible for a VRRA racing membership, and are also eligible to apply for a RACE license. Riders under the age of 18 years at the time of the scheduled school must contact the VRRA to obtain an underage consent form prior to application. There will be on-track sessions for the entire day, coupled with classroom discussions.
The classroom sessions will cover the material required for a racing license. In addition we will cover VRRA race weekend procedures, registration, machine preparation and technical requirements. The on-track sessions will cover racing lines, practice grids and starts, and on-track behavior.

Hi, I will forget about vintage, I prefere riding a brand new bike, there is enough
mechanic work to do, even on a new bike.
