Timed events open to the public?

Post by TravisZack »

Can't think of the terminology but I'm thinking hill-climbs, sprints, rally's etc. with a "run what ya brung" approach. One-man timed runs on sections of closed roads, that sort of thing. Any of that go on over here?

Just read about this in Practical Sportsbikes, looks like an interesting event. Be a good excuse to get a load of storms together. :thumbup:
