About this trip
You're at Portimao. Leaned over to the right following the long downhill you crest the straight and your front end lifts calmly on a new S1000RR. You keep the throttle steady, the winglets do their job and the front gently drops down with a familiar chirp. You cross the finish line once again and prepare to carefully brake downhill. The rear floats a bit then you feel the grip and throttle hard with a smile. This is your idea of a vacation, this is your second day on track. You're here for 3 days of blissful track riding and one day of relaxation before you head back to your busy life. No touristy stuff, this is all you want. To ride the roller coaster of the MotoGP calendar on a good bike and share some good food and conversation with fellow A Group riders just like yourself. The mechanic is keeping an eye on your tire wear but so far the medium compound rear is holding up because you are riding smooth. That night in your two bedroom apartment fellow riders chat on the balcony about lines and body positioning on this complex circuit . At least for these 4 days everything will be the way it should be. Just you, an amazing track on the other side of the world and a bunch of lunatics just like you.
Responsible A Group Only
This experimental package has been put together for responsible A Group riders. No schools or classroom sessions, just some coaching on lines if you want it. . These bikes had to be specially requested from BMW so the key word here is "responsible". You're riding at a European track day on someone else's bike so keep it smooth and predictable. If you've been to as many rider meetings as your skills suggest then you don't need to be told how you should be riding here. You're at Portimao to show and grow your skills... not your balls. Keep it shiny so we can do this again.
