We’ll be hosting a third New Racer Workshop the evening of TUESDAY, 15 January. This workshop will focus on bike prep and safety wiring. This month’s workshop will be in downtown Portland, at the Graeter Art Gallery, 131 NW 2nd Ave., Portland, OR 97209.
(The gallery hosted last summer’s Building Speed motorcycle/art show.)
We’ve also locked in the calendar for the next couple months, so if you’re interested, please get the dates up on your calendar! (Note that if you missed the original “Racing Overview” workshop, just show up early to any of the workshops and we’ll get you up to speed.)

We’ll get additional location details up as we nail them down.
The workshop is FREE and simple: ice-cold refreshments and hot coffee, a handful of friendly, experienced racers to answer your questions, and resources that’ll help you get from the street, onto the track (and the podium). We race (and have won championships) in multiple classes from vintage to lightweight to modern superbikes – no matter what you are interested in there will be someone to talk to.
We’ll have answers to your questions:
How much does it cost to race? What kind of bike can I race?
Can I race my streetbike?
What kind of preparation is required for my bike?
How can I make racing cheaper?
Why should I race instead of doing track days?
Can I race with the riding gear I have?
Where can I learn more?
What shops support racers?
Can I make money racing?
