KEEP THE KIDDIES HAPPY
Something different and on a more important note for some of us Trackday addicts; keeping your younger children happy.
One of our regulars Martin Howard has established 'Little Bikers UK'. Where your children get to play and learn how to ride small electric bikes.
The Instructors are qualified by ACU and bike safety and operation is taught at the beginning of each lesson. All riders are provided with safety equipment to wear during lessons.
The Instructor uses an independent adjustable speed controller to restrict the maximum speed in accordance with the riders ability.
The bikes feature fully enclosed chain guard, front and rear disc brakes, full working suspension and are light enough for children to manoeuvre easily and importantly learn how to ride.
Also with Little Bikers UK you'll learn how to:-
* Do stand up riding
* Do wheelies and stoppies
* Ride over obstacles and see saws
* Do bunny hops
This fun and enjoyable activity is for Boys and Girls aged from 5 to 10 years old.  Lessons which are managed to cater for all skill levels, are 45 minutes long.
Available on Saturdays 09:00 to 16:00 at the Mapledurham Estate near Reading, Berks.
To ask questions or book lessons simply call Martin on 07879 552 000 or e-mail


15th October '09 News

A week after coming home from our second Euro Combo this year where 16 excitable individuals and their cars had a fantastic time on the Nordschleife and at Spa-Francorchamps, all coupled with a laugh-a-minute off-track activities. We are now itching for more action on the Green Hell, and that is what we are planning with a trip to see the biggest 24hr race on any country's calendar, yes the hardest of all endurance races the ADAC Nurburgring 24hr.

Previous Event News
Spring Blast at Castle Combe: The first hours of the event were challenging due to poor visibility, allowing slow lapping of the circuit only. Thanks to the efforts of Castle Combe staff and the late arrival of the spring sun, normal driving on this fast and challenging circuit commenced later in the morning and continued for the rest of the event. The fog had the great effect of chilling everyone out and an excited and more sociable was had by all.
As always the event was well supported by regulars and clubs alike, a big thanks to all who made the day special, we look forward to seeing you on track in the future.
Euro Blast 09: We had an unbelievable time firstly on Pau-Arnos’ technical and exhilarating track, then we were off into the mountains where the meandering challenges that were given to us enthralled all, and we had fantastic weather up in the Pyrenees, the French, Italian and Swiss Alps. The awe of the Goldeneye dam sent shudders through those brave enough to take the leap, and heightened the already big smiles on everyone’s faces. The full report will be up on the website soon. Drivers who completed the post trip questionnaire were entered in a draw for a TM jacket. Tony Groves is the lucky winner.
Ring Weekend: We are looking at organising a ring weekend on the first weekend of October and taking advantage of the public dates published and then after the weekend for those interested joining a track event at Spa. We are keen to understand how many of you would be interested. Terry will be the Track Masters man joining you at the ring. If you are keen to attend let us know.
Track Masters Garage: All change for the team, Evo’s and Impreza’s have gone, with open arms we welcome 2 Porsches including a Manthey racing GT3, a 993 Carrera 2S plus an Exige S.
USA Track Special, Riley Motorsports sent me information about their latest offering which in my opinion looks awesome, a purpose built track day car and more.
